You can easily force print statement to work in mod_python. Request
object has method 'write' and it is only method that print statement
calls on destination object. So you can replace sys.stdout with req.


from mod_python import apache
import sys

def handler(req):
    sys.stdout = req
    print 'hello world'
    return apache.OK
