Python 2.1 CGI engine for PWS (Win98) => Error 500

Done, of course, I thried with the python builtin tets script:

import cgi
cgi.test()

That assumes this.
In addition, I tested with another simple one that runs (as CGI) with
Apache.

AFAIK, an encoding error does not raise an HTTP error 500 but a mess on the
browser.

Thanks
