>Try pkg_add mod_fastcgi
Good call, I actually did try that and the relevant package is no longer
in ports and marked as obsolete.
# pkg_add mod_fastcgi
quirks-2.414 signed on 2018-03-28T14:24:37Z
Can't find mod_fastcgi
Obsolete package: mod_fastcgi (no longer useful)
It looks to me these got removed with OBSD 5.8.

From those release notes:
---
www/apache-httpd updated to 2.4.12.
Apache HTTPD is now at 2.4.12. When upgrading from 2.2.x releases manual
configuration changes may be required. See the Apache HTTPD 2.4 upgrade
guide for details.
The ap2-mod_fastcgi and ap2-mod_fcgid ports have been superseded by
mod_proxy_fcgi which ships with Apache HTTPD 2.4 out of the box.

Below is a snippet of the debian default backuppc conf for apache2. They
have it call a compiled backuppc binary named index.cgi:
<Directory /usr/share/backuppc/cgi-bin/>
.
.
DirectoryIndex index.cgi
.
.
</Directory>
#file index.cgi
index.cgi: setuid ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1
(SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for
GNU/Linux 2.6.32,
BuildID[sha1]=c4dff956ad54aaffb8c90cb474668e06392af44d, stripped
The openbsd backuppc ports install has neither a cgi-bin directory nor
an index.cgi anywhere in /usr/local. I'll see if the backuppc mailing
list can assist here as well.
