--- Comment #4 from Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org> ---
Currently, the CGI servlet only handles a request body if the method is POST
and the Content-Length header is set.

Unless there are objections then I propose the following:
- allow any HTTP method and let the CGI script decide how to handle it
- except HEAD, TRACE and OPTIONS which will still be handled by HttpServlet
- pass the request body for any method if Content-Length or Transfer-Encoding
is set

Since this is a change in functionality, I propose to only make this change in
9.0.x.
