You may try to build your own version with adding --enable-cgi in the
Makefile configure flags. It seems that even configure tells that
--enable-cgi is the default it seems it is not. Go figure...
Also mod_cgid.so should be built but seems to be missing. mod_cgid.so is
the module that should be used with the worker or event MPM.
So maybe try something like this diff.
