 This is a re-open of #4462 (I don't have permission to actually re-open
 it.)

 For reasons unknown, lighttpd converts all cgi (but not fastcgi)
 environment variable names to uppercase. This was reported to lighttpd
 devs 2 years (!) ago, but the issue seems to be ignored (see
 http://trac.lighttpd.net/trac/ticket/420).

 The attached patch makes mythweb work properly with lighttpd.


 [17587] Didn't fix it, because the line changed would never have any
 effect due to the line above it. (Doesn't work for me anyway.)

 The attached patch should provide lowercase versions of any DB_*
 environment variables. (Which is all that is set in the webserver configs,
 so I assume that is all we need.) (This works for me.)
