I should have piped up earlier, but this behavior also occurs with

need to
get rolling on the Fedora Extras packages...) the "abort on an empty
PATH_INFO" behavior essentially means that Quixote will append a
trailing slash onto any directory except the root, leading to
situtions
If your environment always has the full path in SCRIPT_NAME, and
nothing in PATH_INFO, then the redirect to SCRIPT_NAME + '/' requires
all urls to end in a trailing slash. I think this is what you are
saying, anyway, and I agree that it is undesirable.
If you *can* trust your environment to have a correct SCRIPT_NAME,
then the redirect to SCRIPT_NAME + '/' (when PATH_INFO is empty) is
nice.
Should Quixote's publisher require a correct SCRIPT_NAME? I think so,
since this can be provided either through the use of the SCGIMount or
through the command-line argument to scgi_server.py.
Should Quixote's publisher give the same result
when PATH_INFO is 'foo/bar' that it gives
when PATH_INFO is '/foo/bar' ?
I don't know what to think about this, but it does seem good to
do something other than trip on the assert.
