[haXe] cacheModule and global variables with threads

[Daniel Daley]

Oh I see. So one instance will be created for every thread in  
apache's thread pool.

I know this has been discussed lightly before but is there any plan  
to port mod_neko to lighttpd? I'm not terribly against apache, but  
I've come to appreciate the light footprint and scalability of  
lighttpd and am sad that I will lose that when I chose to use haXe.

Thanks again for your time and such a quick response!
