I haven't, but I do it with mod_perl a lot.

If you want some debugging to see exactly what dispatch is doing, you can try
turning on debugging:
  $CGI::Application::Dispatch::DEBUG = 1;

If you can reduce it to the shortest amount of code possible that can replicate
the problem it might make it easier for other FCGI/lighttpd folks to help out.

That looks ok to me, but I'm not a FCGI expert.

I don't think it's the cause either, but you might want to drop the custom
dispatch class and see if you can replicate it with C::A::Dispatch itself. If
you can, then you know for sure it's not your subclass.
