Thanks Christian. I'm not sure if that is what is affecting the
wsgi-server. Running it with a simple hello-world wsgi-app is ok for
one request, but after that it just exits.

I tried changing

stackless.run()

to

while self.running: # self is the wsgi server obj.
    stackless.run()
    time.sleep(0.001)

But then it just hangs after the first request.

There is a tasklet that calls .accept() on a stacklesssocket-like
object, in a similar loop (while self.running). That loop doesn't seem
to terminate (verified with print statements).

I guess the problem is that I'm confused about the semantics of run().
Richard talked about adding a parameter to revert to the old behaviour
for single threaded programs. Is that in there (not mentioned in
help(stackess.run)).
