So the first time the browser requests the page the server will send the
version with the meta refresh.

The user attempts to use the back arrow on her browser and goes back to
their cached version of the page with the meta refresh and pops forwards
again.

You'll need to turn off caching of the redirect cgi, as bizarre as that
sounds.
