Okay, it loads with 2.2.3, but I'm getting the ImportError: No module 
named _apache
from my cgi-bin (when run from within Apache, *NOT* from the the command 
line.
Any idea what PYTHONPATH, PATH, etc. might help it find _apache? (which
I assume should be loaded from the c:\Program Files\Apache 
Group\Apache2\modules dir,
with the LoadModule python-module modules/mod_python.so  directive, but 
doesn't
seem to be).

Thanks,
Bill
