Pardon me for saying so, but I don't believe you.  Your script must
actually look like this:

  #!/usr/bin/python
  import cgi

  print "<html>Hello, world!</html>"
  print "Content-type: text/html\n"
  print "<html>Hello, world!</html>"

That's the only answer that fits your results, and it would produce exactly
the results you describe.
