And MP2 as well, from ModPerl::RegistryCooker:
my $path_info = $self->{REQ}->path_info;
my $script_name = $path_info && $self->{URI} =~ /$path_info$/
? substr($self->{URI}, 0, length($self->{URI}) - length($path_info))
: $self->{URI};
Wonderful. Won't take long until this makes the rounds. Better start
getting the patches out and the press releases.
