python+apache的服务器搭建问题

最近使用python+apache搭建服务器，发现一个问题：对于POST请求+application/octet-stream的Content-Type，服务器总是返回501错误。

后来查看了mod_python/util.py脚本，发现设置的PythonHandler是mod_python.publisher，对于POST请求，其Content-Type有约束条件：

109        if req.method != "POST":
110            return
111 
112        try:
113            clen = int(req.headers_in["content-length"])
114        except (KeyError, ValueError):
115            # absent content-length is not acceptable
116            raise apache.SERVER_RETURN, apache.HTTP_LENGTH_REQUIRED
117 
118        if not req.headers_in.has_key("content-type"):
119            ctype = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
120        else:
121            ctype = req.headers_in["content-type"]
122 
123        if ctype.startswith("application/x-www-form-urlencoded"):
124            pairs = parse_qsl(req.read(clen), keep
