WeBrick and Windows CGI BUGS

The patch to add a delay for the deleting of the temporary files
work. But I seem to need a delay of 1.5 seconds or greater otherwise
I have sporadic errors. This does not seem right to me, I’ll look
into this some more.

There is a bug in cgihandler.rb under windows.

The popen should be opened in binary mode in windows or I sometimes
get errors in cgi_runner.rb when it tries to restore the hash.

cgihandler.rb Line 35

Thanks,

Walt

I’ll apply this. Thanks.
