ezcgi uses some dirty tricks to get at the needed variables under windows.
cgiapp is entirely cross-platform. But it was based heavily on ezcgi.

I don't want to say that ezcgi was bad, not at all. Just cgiapp fits more
in a general approach to applications we want to introduce in the FCL,
and which was not present when ezcgi was first developed.
