 lighttpd/1.4.22 does not populate _REQUEST['action'] for wp-login.php,
 this in turn disabled any action in the switch statement breaking the
 ability to logout.

 Symtoms of this bug are: clicking logout in wordpress 2.8 and going to the
 login page but not really logging out.  Clicking logout in wordpress 2.3
 and being redirected right back to the /wp-admin page.

 adding this code to wp-login.php, fixes the behavior and re-enables all
 features in wp-login.php.

 I don't know the wordpress code but if there is a section which deals with
 idiosyncrasies of web servers that lighttpd be detected and this code be
 run to deal with it.

 //
 // Main
 //


 if (strpos($_SERVER['SERVER_SOFTWARE'], 'lighttpd') !== false)
 {
 $_lighty_url = $base_url.$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
 $_lighty_url = @parse_url($_lighty_url);
 $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] = $_lighty_url['query'];
 parse_str($_lighty_url['query'], $_lighty_query);
 foreach ($_lighty_query as $key => $val)
 $_GET[$key] = $_REQUEST[$key] = $val;
 }
