The trick is to use (for the hard-coded "cgi" scripts) the cgi module with
non-default parameters: instead of os.environ, use a special dictionary,
and instead of sys.stdin, use self.rfile. You'll have to hack something
up, and I'm not aware of any ready made examples, but this should give 
you enough to go on.
