When I force the module cgi script to be executed in the root user's
env (by changing the shebang line to #!/usr/bin/env /usr/bin/perl), it
works and miniserv borks due to the lack of headers (which is what I
would expect).

So something must differ from root's environment in the environment
miniserv executes the script in. At present I don't see any
significant difference, however.

Kind Regards,
