path_info - orig_path_info (PHP5?)

This may be more of an Apache question, but after an upgrade at my
remote host (one of them being from Php4 to Php5), $_SERVER['PATH_INFO']
no longer contains any data. Instead, the string I am looking for is in
$_SERVER['ORIG_PATH_INFO'] (never heard of that one before - I found it
using phpinfo).

Example URL:
http://example.com/index.php/Keyword

Before the upgrade $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] would contain /Keyword. Now it
is blank, and there is a new server variable, $_SERVER['ORIG_PATH_INFO']
that does contain /Keyword.

Is this a Php5 issue, ... an Apache issue, ... something else?

I just checked my php 5.2 / Apache 2 and it is returning the PATH_INFO
per your expectations (and no ORIG_PATH_INFO in sight).

There seems to be a bug in Php when run as cgi that is not being addressed.
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=31843

After reading that, I think the easiest thing for me to do now is make
my scripts check to see if PATH_INFO *or* ORIG_PATH_INFO is set.
