We had problems with the current [1] CGI Adaptor, at least, from  
wonder where it fails to read POSTs throwing an exception (broken  
pipe). Grabbing the one from WO5.3.1 fixed the problem. Both may not  
solve the above dilemma but the WO5.3.1 version might be a good  
starting point anyway. It's not very different - just a few diffs.  
The wonder one was from a previous Apple version anyway...

[1] current might not be the right word. It's not been updated for  
quite some time.

with regards,
