Looking at thttpd (2.25b-6). I don't regilarily use it, so I just looked
at the man page and provided configuration file. Maybe I missed
something.
Aparantly there is just a single cgi_pat directive. It can include
multiple patterns, though. There is no 'include' option to include a
file from a different package.
BTW: it seems that thttpd shares the same .htpasswd file format with
apache. Though it needs it in the same directory and it only applies to
that directory.
In Lenny:
$ aptitude search ~Phttpd-cgi
