Is Selinux enabled? If so, you need to run something like this:

chcon -t httpd_sys_script_exec_t ~hobbit/cgi-bin/*
chcon -t httpd_sys_script_exec_t ~hobbit/cgi-secure/*
chcon -R -t httpd_sys_script_ro_t /var/lib/hobbit/rrd/


(I used my own packages, and ran exactly this:
chcon -t httpd_sys_script_exec_t /usr/lib/hobbit/cgi-bin/*
chcon -t httpd_sys_script_exec_t /usr/lib/hobbit/cgi-secure/*
chcon -R -t httpd_sys_script_ro_t /var/lib/hobbit/rrd/
)
