Lighttpd apparently sets REDIRECT_STATUS=200 for the server.error-handler-404 page. This breaks the [[plugins/404]] plugin which checks this variable for 404 before processing the URI. It also doesn't seem to set REDIRECT_URL. Lighttpd apparently sets REDIRECT_STATUS=200 for the server.error-handler-404 page.

I was able to fix my server to check the REQUEST_URI for ikiwiki.cgi and to continue processing if it was not found, passing $ENV{SEVER_NAME} . $ENV{REQUEST_URI} as the first parameter to cgi_page_from_404. However, my perl is terrible and I just made it work rather than figuring out exactly what to do to get it to work on both lighttpd and apache.

This is with lighttpd 1.4.19 on Debian. This is with lighttpd 1.4.19 on Debian.
