[New-bugs-announce] [issue6728] To avoid hang up in using CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler under IIS 7.x

[Yang]

New submission from Yang <student at live.cn>:

The mismatched content length will cause hang up in sys.stdin.read(). 
The reason is probably described in Issue 1214 as well as 1725295.

length = int(os.environ.get('CONTENT_LENGTH', None))
"""Length fix for IIS 7.x to avoid hang up"""
length=length-2

I would appreciate if someone can create a diff or patch file for the 
code above.
