www is a user, so you could expand those paths to
/home/www/www
and
/home/www/www/cgi-bin

We differenciate here.
Our /home structure looks like this:
/home
/home/staff
/home/customers <---- this has quotas and resides on a seperate
filesystem. In case of the WWW server, it is a
nfs mounted filesystem.
/home/customers/<customer>/www <---customers have their Web stuff in here
/home/www <---- Only available on the WWW server
/home/www/www <---- Since www is a user it makes sense to let him keep
"his" files in a www directory too.
