   As the author of mod_pcgi2 I can assure you that the module passess all
environment variables that are available at the moment of request.

   May be by some reason Apache does not passes these variables to the
mod_pcgi2.

   Yes, I think they must. How did you look into REQUEST.environ? There is
a chance Zope's Request object hides some variables from you.
