The system process that runs your CGI program will not
be owned by you, so it won't use your personal environment variables,
such as EUDIR or EUINC. If you own the machine (have root access)
I guess you could set a system-wide environment variable for EUDIR.
I don't own the RapidEuphoria or ListFilter machines, so I just
stick any needed include files in the same (cgi-bin) directory
as my main cgi file. (Or the include statement could have a 
hard-coded path to the euphoria/include directory, wherever it is.)
Maybe someone else has a better way of doing things.
