This doesn't really answer your specific question, but an alternative 
would be to not use CGI, but instead create a Webrick servlet.  I use 
Webrick with Dave Thomas's RubLog package on my WinXP machine at home.  This worked pretty well for Rublog without a 
ton of duplication, because the CGI for RubLog was really just a thin 
wrapper/configurator on top of a set of libraries.

You can see the trivial Webrick code here:
