[web2py] [fcgi.py] "SyntaxError: invalid syntax"

[Heck Lennon]

Hello

I'm trying to set things up on a shared Apache server with mod_fcgid before 
learning about Web2Py, but it seems like the 
fcgi.py<http://code.google.com/p/web2py/source/browse/gluon/contrib/gateways/fcgi.py?r=fab104bec8982d095375f9d6430b72f0ef87c6e8>file
 in the repository doesn't work:

# python
>>> from fcgi import WSGIServer
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "fcgi.py", line 473
    except socket.error as e:
                         ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Am I doing it wrong?

Thank you
