	script_path is initialized with false so the absolute path
of the script is obtained from PATH_TRANSLATED variable.  Variable
script_path could be redefined by the configuration file (cgilua/config.lua)
therefore CGILua could alter the server translation scheme.
	script_vpath is the virtual path (not the absolute path).

	If I understand correctly, the problem is not with preprocess
function but with the htmlheader function that does not check if the
Content-type header was already sent, right?
