Prior to 2.4, cgi.parse_qs("", keep_blank_values=True) 
returned {}.  It now returns {'': ['']}.  This patch 
restores the old behaviour without breaking the edit 
that introduced it, namely that parse_qs("pog", 
keep_blank_values=True) should return {'pog': ['']}.

Brett, you changed the keep_blank_values, do you agree with
this change?

Neil fixed this so as to return an empty dict to deal with bug #990307; 
essentially this is a dup report.
