[New-bugs-announce] [issue1214] Timeout in CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler under IIS

[steenie]

New submission from steenie:

Using CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler results in a timeout if running behind
Internet Information Server/CGI. Maybe there is no eof on sys.stdin
under IIS and python continues to read even if there is no more data
available. The same runs without problems under Apache/CGI.
Reading only os.environ['CONTENT_LENGTH'] bytes from sys.stdin will as
well work under IIS (see patch).
