Berker Peksag added the comment:
I agree with David and Éric. There is no point to remove/deprecate it. I'd
prefer to fix bugs in CGIHTTPRequestHandler (and in other CGI related stuff in
stdlib) instead of introducing new incompatibilities at this point.

Google does find matches for “CGI /htbin”. Given that CGI is an obsolete
technology anyway, I don’t see value in removing that, and propose that we
reject this request.

New submission from anatoly techtonik techto...@gmail.com:
CGIHTTPServer looks for CGI files in '/htbin' directory. This never was a
standard (in comparison to `cgi-bin`) and can be safely removed at least in Py3k

If it were to be removed it would have to go through the deprecation process.
Does it cause any problems? If not I'd say we should just leave it.
