Don't hold your breath.  It will happen when it will happen.

What you may want to consider is running an additional web server on the
same machine that is on a different port (like 8080 or something) that
handles requests to this CGI.  I don't know your setup, but it is something
that may work for you.

If you are calling MacPerl::DoAppleScript, this can be a serious drag on
performance.  It can take several seconds just for one call.  Consider
using Mac::AppleEvents::Simple (see macperlcat.pod, included with MacPerl,
and the Mac::AppleEvents::Simple docs, on http://pudge.net/macperl/) for
more information.
