i don't have a definitive answer (i'd never heard of SCGI before those
patches arrived) but do have a tiny bit more info which might help someone
else...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_Common_Gateway_Interface

shows an example which implies that REQUEST_URI is indeed required by SCGI.
As Ben says, though, it's not part of CGI.

My suspicion is that Fossil needs to be fixed but that this hasn't yet been
seen because Apache and friends provide REQUEST_URI even in CGI mode. i'll
see if i can get an SCGI environment running here to try this out (apache
appears to have a mod_scgi... let's see what that does...).

i can't make any promises, but i'm looking into it.
