[mod_python] bug in parsing POST input sent by Opera

 hello again,

 after some investigating i found out the data already gets mangled to
 mod_python so it's not mod_python's problem. so the problem is somewhere
 in flash player and opera integration. apologies for the possible
 confusion - i've just found out.
