Subject: Change to the way the `real' (i.e Python) CGI program gets invoked.
 Now the wrapper simply calls the Python written scripts/driver program and
 passes the module name as argv[1].

Eliminates the (unchecked in) need for symbolic links.  This file
still gets compiled into a number of different executables, each named
after the module that gets imported.  This could be changed to use
symlinks later.
