I have two issues with the handling of cgi-bin in
4.3.0-beta1:
1)  the cgi URL is ignored.
Answering anything to this question:
  What is the URL for the Xymon CGI directory [/xymon-cgi] ?
  (Note: This is the URL - NOT the filesystem directory)
will put the result into
/home/hobbit/server/etc/hobbit-apache.conf
i.e.
  ScriptAlias /whatever/ "/var/www/cgi-bin/xymon/"
However, the actual URL used in the running system remains
  http://myhost.com/xymon/cgi-bin/bb-hostsvc.sh?...
                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
should have been /whatever/
Workaround: put the ScriptAlias before the Alias directives
in the hobbit-apache.conf file.
2)  the cgi URL is inconsistent.
For some of the cgi-bin scripts, 'cgi-bin' is appended to
the
URLs, yielding references to:
  /xymon/cgi-bin/cgi-bin/bb-snapshot.sh was not found on this server.
Where is the extra /cgi-bin coming from?
Thanks,
Wendell
