The limit request body directive is effectively broken in conjunction
with mod_python. Read:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-240
Stop using mod_python, use mod_wsgi instead, where it works properly
as mod_wsgi does specific checks of its own in relation to
LimitRequestBody directive before any work done, where as mod_python
relies on lower level Apache HTTP input filter code doing the checks,
and which causes problems as explained in the ticket in mod_python
issue tracker.
