Shoot! Current circumstances might not allow for a recompiling of
Embperl. Does anyone know of any possible work around?
The problem comes from a change in behaviour of CGI.pm in versions 3.01+
So you could downgrade CGI.pm. Alternatively, the relevant part of the patch is just stashing the $cgi object somewhere for the life of the request. You could patch Embperl.pm and put it somewhere earlier in your @INC path, or redefine just this function in one of your apache startup scripts, etc.
