	The owner can control /who/ runs the script -- via Group and Other
settings... But the access privileges to the rest of the system are
controlled by the process that runs the script -- in this case, Apache is
probably spawning a process (since you appear to be using classical CGI
invocation rather than a framework) that runs Python for each invocation.

	The privileges, thereby, are those of Apache (at best -- I don't know
UNIX systems well enough to know if Apache is capable of putting even more
restrictions on subprocesses).

	Depending on how the scripts are put into Apache's CGI system, Apache
may even be the owner of the script file.
