Comment(by danielsummers):

 I've run into this in a different context, but found this with my
 searches.  I do have several WordPress blogs.  I'm looking to move to
 lighttpd to ease the burden on my server.

 That being said, this is how I implemented it...

 {{{
                 if (strpos($_SERVER["SERVER_SOFTWARE"], "lighttpd") !==
 false) {
                         parse_str(parse_url($_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"],
 PHP_URL_QUERY), $_GET);
                 }

 }}}

 Passing the PHP_URL_QUERY parameter to parse_url only returns the query
 string portion; parse_str can put the items straight into $_GET, so you
 don't need the interim array and for loop.

 (Please correct me if I'm wrong; I'm just ecstatic to have found the
 solution.  In lighttpd's documentation, WAY at the bottom, it shows how to
 pass the query string; however, I've implemented the above in my web app
 so I can use the syntax I'm used to.)
