[Zope] Zero length files after FTP put to ZServer

[Alex.Thomas@dresdnerkb.com]

OK, thanks for that. Following a suggestion from Rhys Jones I've copied the
1.5.1 version of cgi.py to the ZPublisher directory and that's fixed it for
now.

cheers
Alex

This is because of a change in python's FieldStorage.py between versions
1.5.1 and 1.5.2. If you use python 1.5.1 with 1.11.0pr1 like DC tells you
too, and 1.5.2 with 2.0.0a1, you'll indeed notice a difference. Item 242 in
the Collector:

Reproducable by toggling between the old and new versions of
FieldStorage.py.
