Ok, interesting.  I guess I need to try modifying mod_cgi.c.

My question now is if my unusual configuration, with DocumentRoot
being Deny from all, but sub-dirs of DocumentRoot as Allow from all is
a reasonably configuration.  That is, should mod_cgi be taking this
possibility into consideration (or maybe ap_sub_req_lookup_uri() is not
the right API or needs to disable logging or some such thing).

That is, what's the next step?

  - accept this as a problem in my configuration (which I don't
  think it is.

  - file a bug report

  - ask on dev@apache first?
