I am using cherrypy 2.3 in conjunction with turbogears 1.0.8 and am
having
trouble with large form value being decoded by cherrypy.

The error manifests itself as such:

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "/home/bisquik/bisque-stable/bqenv/lib/python2.5/site-packages/
CherryPy-2.3.0-py2.5.egg/cherrypy/_cphttptools.py", line 114, in _run
   self.processBody()

   self.params.update(httptools.paramsFromCGIForm(forms))

paramsFromCGIForm
   value = valueList.value # It's a regular field
 File "/usr/lib/python2.5/cgi.py", line 551, in __getattr__
   value = self.file.read()
TypeError: read() takes exactly 2 arguments (1 given)


We have tracked this down to the special handling done by
 _cpcgifs.FieldStorage

The issues is in multiform fields that have field length of over 1000
bytes.  The
FieldStorage class silently converts these into file-like objects
backed up on the file system
by a temporary file.

We have resolved the issue by replacing references to
_cpcgifs.FieldStorage to
simply use the standard module cgi.FieldStorage  in _cphttptools.py.
Aft this change the field problem is handled  correctly.

However, since we distribute the software, we would prefer not to have
to provide our own patched  versions of cherrypy..
Are there any plans on new versions of turbogears 1.0.8
release in the future?
