Is there a way to modify an environment variable that gets passed

would prefer not to do this in the CGI because the CGIs are already
written (legacy in house application).
TIA.
I just did this using mod_rewrite by setting the E flag.
RewriteRule /.* - [E=varname:value]
In my case, I needed to pass the request uri to ColdFusion (which
doesn't appear to pass it along as it should). I did so using this
capability (I was already using mod_rewrite).
RewriteRule /.* /my/redirect.cfm [E=MY_REQUEST_URI:%{REQUEST_URI},PT]
Worked like a charm.
Hope this helps.
