We write all code as if it were an Apache module (or FCGI), even if we 
compile it as CGI at the moment.
You just need to take care of the fact that web modules already in the 
memory can be reused for following requests (in case of Apache mods and 
FCGI), so the global variables, web module variables (private and 
public), etc. can have values left over from previous requests.
Especially, need to take care of closing connections, files, free used 
memory, etc. after a request is finished and put back things to the 
initial state before leaving, so the next request that might get the 
same web module for action handling will find the same state as the 
previous.
This is the same for Apache modules and FCGI.

Only the .lpi and .lpr files (they are all very small and after creating 
them the first time no changes are needed at all) are different between 
Apache module, FCGI and CGI applications, the web module file is the 
same (example: under your Lazarus directory in 
/components/fpweb/demo/fptemplate/sessions/urlsessions-login/).
