Patch by Jeff Rush:

In SimpleHTTPServer.py, the server specified in test() should
be BaseHTTPServer.HTTPServer, in case the request handler should
want to reference the two attributes added by
BaseHTTPServer.server_bind:

        self.server_name = hostname
        self.server_port = port

There was some Bobo CGI code that wanted access to those attributes.
