[Xitami] using cgi with Xitami

[Vera Cranor]

Thanks Murali.
No, not trying to do any SQL... just print a little message for testing.

My old version xitami would run Perl but the browser didn't get the output from it.
Now this new version doesn't run Perl at all. (I do have Perl in the path)

I appreciate your efforts and at least you got me as far as getting the "Service"
thing set.
