Comment 8 for bug 122255

Is there any status on this bug? I'm getting "bitten" by this, as I'm using Django-XML-RPC and finding it works really fine - but now I need to extract some headers from the request, and the only way ahead seems to writing some dodgy middleware using threadlocal.

(I might end up having to patch it, but it would be nice if there were a "standard" way of doing this.)
