How can I make line 1 come up as an instant page.
I've never done this myself, but I believe you need to close stdin and
stderr as well as stdout.
I'm near certain that would lead to apache ultimately clobbering the child
process. The best way to handle this is your own daemon, which your cgi
tells to 'go' and then returns immediate to apache after printing the
status message. Even if apache serves this request, I believe the worker
slot will block on the process to exit, or axe it.
