all this compatibility stuff makes my head spin. good thing
i'm going on vacation this weekend. anyway

with CollectionItem = 1, which of course i use since we support
nix/windows platforms, i have the following problem

1). the only way to read something out of $Application seems
to be $Application->Contents('Checksum') on windows/perlscript

2). with CollectionItem = 1 on though Application->Contents('Checksum')
just gives the CollectionItem hash on Apache::ASP. PROBLEM!!!

3). so, unfortunately, for compatibility Apache::ASP would
need to return the value (see my patch), not the hash when:

        CollectionItem = 1

                and

        $Application->Contents('Foo') is called

4). $Request and $Response do not exhibit this oddity. i've never
tried $Session so i can't comment on it.

thanks joshua - bug for bug we'll match perlscript!
