Re: [Speedycgi-users] SpeedyCGI-2.21 doesn't compile under Red Hat 9

The better fix is #define line at the top, so you should use that one.  With
that fix, speedycgi should behave normally.

If speedycgi is passing "make test" on RH-9, it's probably working OK now,
so you should concentrate on the perl code.  There are subtle differences
in the way perl scripts behave when they are run persistently, and usually
that's where problems come up when you switch to speedycgi.
