I see some more strange strings in "not-mod_neko" section of Web.hx:
_get_host_name = function() { return untyped "localhost".__s; };
_get_client_ip = function() { return untyped "127.0.0.1".__s; };
Again hardcoded "localhost/127.0.0.1" as "GET" in my previous letter
(http://lists.motion-twin.com/pipermail/neko/2010-December/002878.html).
If I rewrite these lines - will it be right? Or they really have to be
hard-coded and I'm thinking in the wrong direction?
