Also, looking at the Apache website, it sort of looks like a permissions 
question:
http://apache.dev.wapme.net/doxygen-2.0/mod__cgi_8c-source.html

it says

         if 
(r-><structrequest__rec.htm#m53>finfo.<structapr__finfo__t.htm#m3>filetype 
== <apr__file__info_8h.htm#a9a17>APR_DIR)
          return <mod__cgid_8c.htm#a20>log_scripterror(r, conf, 
HTTP_FORBIDDEN, 0,
                                "attempt to invoke directory as script");
