**      privileges are dropped prior to reading any input (but after entering
**      the chroot jail, of course).  If root privileges cannot be dropped
**      (for example because the --user command-line option was omitted or
**      because the user specified by the --user option does not exist), 
**      then the process aborts with an error prior to reading any input.
**
** (3)  The length of an HTTP request is limited to MAX_CONTENT_LENGTH bytes
**      (default: 20 million).  Any HTTP request longer than this fails
**      with an error.
**
** (4)  There are hard-coded time-outs on each HTTP request.  If this process
**      waits longer than the timeout for the complete request, or for CGI
**      to finish running, then this process aborts.  (The timeout feature
**      can be disabled using the --debug command-line option.)
