Yes, my apache runs as nobody:nogroup on this server. I had changed it
to root:bin as it was set with sbox, and left it as root:root (as set by
the makefile), no difference.

Sure, "The cgiwrap executable(s) were not made setuid-root. This is
required for it to function properly. (SetUID root is needed in order to
change the uid to that of the script owner. This is an installation
error please make the executable setuid root, or use the 'make install'
method of installing the executables. "

Which I tried second. First I used the port cgiwrap with the above
result, then I built it myself and got the same error.

Stumped...
