 Just nuke it..and maybe make the cgi code modular so it can be
 used as basis for other similar things..like CLI.. :)

 This means the only working version and which really should be
 used for this is the one bundled with PHP?

 Better make it just --enable-fastcgi and not even try allowing
 the external library usage if your above note about the code
 from fastcgi.com is true..otherwise it's just open can of bugs. :)

I've just checked Netcraft and not only do they not have any usage data for 
this web server, but they don't even list it on their server list 
(http://www.netcraft.com/Survey/servers.html). The mailing list of fhttpd 
also seem to have a distinct lack of users, unless spam from Korea and 
Nigeria counts ;). AFAICT this web server is dead.

Seems I got unsubscribed and missed this email.

sapi/fastgi is lacking in code that exists already in sapi/cgi, so I 
combined them several months ago.  The idea is to depricate sapi/fastcgi 
in favor of the combined cgi/fastcgi module.  libfcgi code from 
fastcgi.com is full of calls to exit() making it a bad thing since you 
generaly want to clean up if there is an error.  I've done the work on 
the windows side to remove that issue, so that is why there is a libfcgi 
directory under sapi/cgi.

The build system for linux needs to introduce a --with-fastcgi or even 
better, --without-fastcgi, which will set the define PHP_FASTCGI for the 
sapi/cgi compile, and include the libfci library as needed.

 While trying to make Andrei happy and come up with --disable-cgi
 option, I noticed that there is really nice little mess in there..

 First of all, status of fhttpd...last version of it was released
 in 17-May-99..also last real updates to this code seem to have
 happened in PHP3. Can we get rid of this (most likely not even working)
 piece of code?

 Second issue, why is the fastcgi related files all over the place? :)
 There is sapi/fastcgi/ directory which has the config.m4 file and
 some other stuff. Then there is also some files under sapi/cgi/libfcgi/
 which don't seem to be used anywhere? Why aren't those under
 sapi/fastcgi/ ??

+1. According to fhttpd.org the last version has been released on 17th
May 99, which implies that development has been suspended forevermore.

Uhu, there isn't even a bug type category for it on bugs.php.net ;-).
