As there were really no objections to the personal mail I sent about this,
I'm filing it as a bug...

Most people setting up a web site expect /cgi-bin/ to be available for
scripts on their site.  Unfortunately, Debian uses this for those scripts
packages that get installed.  These two need to be independant.

As such, Debian's system needs to be altered a bit.  I recommend using
instead the name "/cgi-lib/" for scripts under /usr/lib/cgi-bin/.  This
will keep both features independant and not affect the general use of
the system.

This proposal seems to have gathered dust and was never clearly
decided either way.  So I am closing it.
