I'm sure you've read this:
http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0333/#environ-variables
The following variables must be present, unless their value would be
an empty string, in which case they may be omitted, except as
otherwise noted below.
<...snip...>
SERVER_NAME, SERVER_PORT
When combined with SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO, these variables
can be used to complete the URL. Note, however, that HTTP_HOST, if
present, should be used in preference to SERVER_NAME for
reconstructing the request URL. See the URL Reconstruction section
below for more detail. SERVER_NAME and SERVER_PORT *can never be
empty strings, and so are always required.*
So, it sounds to me like the spec doesn't take unix sockets into
consideration, which makes sense. Either way, if you omit, or set the
value to an empty string, you are going to be violating the spec. FWIW,
if it was me, I'd follow suit with what the other servers are doing.

Hello everyone!
What is SERVER_PORT supposed to be set to if the WSGI server is only
bound to a Unix socket?
Some major Web servers (Gunicorn, CherryPy) set it to the empty
string. Intuitively I'd rather not set it at all.
What do you guys recommend?
btw, www.wsgi.org != wsgi.org. That's very confusing.
