in reply to Invoking a cgi script from another cgi script using system()
you have to read the source for the CGI.pm module , someone may have edited it to enable/disable @ARGV processing
Although, if your cgi program consisted of
use MyApp; MyApp->runcgi;
then you wouldn't have to use system to call your cgi program, you could use MyApp .... regular perl programming
