As the 1.2 branch runs within twisted, all stdout issues should be solved.
I don't know anything about FastCGI, but it should be easy to build derive
a new request class and write a small fastcgimain.py.

The arch repository can be found at http://thinkmo.de/ArchRepository as
stated at ["MoinMoin:MoinMoinTodo/Release 1.2"].
It's not that good to find because it was a parallel development to the
(long time unreleased) 1.1 and was and in parts still is fast moving and
not as stable as the 1.1 branch.
