Summary: CGIHTTPServer does not handle scripts in sub-dirs

Initial Comment:
CGIHTTPServer does not handle scripts in sub directoreis correctly: 
When accessing eg. '/cgi-bin/scripts/bla', CGIHTTPServer returns 
 
404 CGI script is not a plain file ('/cgi-bin/script') 
 
This tracked down to CGIHTTPRequestHandler.run_cgi() containing 
these lines: 
 
        i = rest.find('/') 
        if i >= 0: 
            script, rest = rest[:i], rest[i:] 
        else: 
            script, rest = rest, '' 
        scriptname = dir + '/' + script 
 
This will move the dir-part of the 'rest' into 'script', but leave the 
actual filename in 'rest'. The 'scriptname' thus does miss the filename. 
 
I assume this should become simply: 
 
        script, rest = rest, '' 
        scriptname = dir + '/' + script
