mysteries within mysteries!
I started stripping away code to find the absolute
minimum that displays this phenomenon, and wound up
with 35 lines of joy.

For me, if I run this, then open a telnet session,
the code will crash. It won't actually core dump,
but it will complain that the interpreter is not
initialized.

If I change one line--if I set the server to
"serve_forever"--everything works fine. Now,
all that serve_forever DOES is repeatedly call
"handle_request"

This is nonintuitive behvior, to me. What am I
missing?
