[Nitro] Nitro on Apache

[Robert Mela]

Mongrel uses AdapterHandlerMixin#handle_context, not Cgi.process... so 
it should be safe.

It is possible to rip Cgi.process out of CgiAdapter and replace it with 
the same handle_context that MongrelAdapter  uses.   It may even then be 
possible to remove Cgi.process altogether -- need to grep to see where 
else it's used.
