Did you look in the mod_python documentation?

  http://www.modpython.org/live/current/doc-html/hand-cgi.html

It certainly isn't the preferred way of using mod_python. You really
should consider porting it properly to either mod_python or as
someone else suggested, WSGI.

Had you used WebStack [1] to begin with, this migration would involve
changing a few lines of glue code. However, as others have pointed out,
WSGI may be an appropriate API to target for a modest rewrite of the
code, given substantial resemblances to aspects of the CGI API.

I assume this is the library one could use if you were running on Python 
2.3 or 2.4

I'm confused.

is WSGI only a specification, or are there implementations, and if so which
ones

WSGI is only a specification.
There are a lot of implementations: servers, middleware and almost all new
Python web apps and frameworks are WSGI applications.

Here is a list of WSGI servers (server gateways)
http://wsgi.org/wsgi/Servers

Start from here to learn more:
http://wsgi.org/wsgi/Learn_WSGI

Then come back, we'll discuss
