[mod_python] 411 Length Required for POST

Thanks, actually I'm already using x-www-form-urlencoded originally  
as a test to confirm the header was being set with XMLHtttpRequest's  
setRequestHeader() method (which is it).  But for whatever reason the  
Content-Length is not being set in the POST header.
