..., which has been installed on darnassus for some time already.  Due to
a slightly different CGI setup compared to apache2, anything related to
CGI has not been working.  I now finally fixed this, and checked login
using a local user ("other": "localsignin"), and login using OpenID
(<https://launchpad.net/~tschwinge>), did a edit/commit with each of
these ("tschwinge going to FOSDEM", yay!), and checked wiki search (had
been reported broken by Justus).

So, <http://darnassus.sceen.net/~hurd-web/> again is functional.
