[mod_python] python apache help

It could be a problem with line endings in the file. Ie. inconsistent
use of CR and LF. Quite hard to tell because as soon as you post the
file, such detail is lost. If you were on a UNIX system I would
suggest you post the output of 'od' run against the file, but you are
on Windows and that is probably all too hard.
