POST parameter handling change?

[Erik Hatcher]

This works fine on an older (trunk at some point a month or two ago)  
version of Solr (in Ruby code):

  Net::HTTP.new('localhost',8888).post("/solr/select",  
"wt=ruby&q=rossetti", { "Content-Type" => "application/x-www-form- 
urlencoded; charset=utf-8" }).body

But on trunk I get an error that the q parameter is missing.  POST  
parameters are being ignored.

Help!  What happened?   I'm going to go back and review the changes  
that have been made lately, and maybe there is something I need to  
change in the config?

Thanks,
        Erik
