The latest source code from the official repository did not even
compile for us (a few months back). So what we still use is a slightly
older version - and it compiles fine. :)

It can be download from here:
  http://opensoft.homeip.net/~graemeg/pwu-1.6.0.2.tar.gz

I don't know the official download location any more. Here are some
more links. The official site is the z505.com one.

Yes, we use threading in plain CGI apps, but only for
logging/debugging purposes. Our
"log-to-[file|sysevents|screen|debugserver]" units all use threading
and cached logging so it doesn't interfere with performance too much.
Release builds have logging disabled. As you know, a standard CGI is
similar to a Console app: It runs, does it's thing, then exits. Our
desktop apps use lots of multi-threading though.
