10458	lighttpd/1.4.22 does not populate _REQUEST['action'] for wp-login.php	myrond		"lighttpd/1.4.22 does not populate _REQUEST['action'] for wp-login.php, this in turn disabled any action in the switch statement breaking the ability to logout.

Symtoms of this bug are: clicking logout in wordpress 2.8 and going to the login page but not really logging out.  Clicking logout in wordpress 2.3 and being redirected right back to the /wp-admin page.

adding this code to wp-login.php, fixes the behavior and re-enables all features in wp-login.php.

I don't know the wordpress code but if there is a section which deals with idiosyncrasies of web servers that lighttpd be detected and this code be run to deal with it. 

//
// Main
//


if (strpos($_SERVER['SERVER_SOFTWARE'], 'lighttpd') !== false)
{
$_lighty_url = $base_url.$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
$_lighty_url = @parse_url($_lighty_url);
$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] = $_lighty_url['query'];
parse_str($_lighty_url['query'], $_lighty_query);
foreach ($_lighty_query as $key => $val)
$_GET[$key] = $_REQUEST[$key] = $val;
}
