If you are using jessie, your Apache version is >= 2.4, so you could
ditch fastcgi and use mod_proxy and mod_proxy_fcgi instead:

https://wiki.apache.org/httpd/PHP-FPM

This is my very short recipe for that:

a2enmod proxy
a2enmod proxy_fcgi

Edit /etc/apache2/sites-available/yourdomain.conf and include
something like this:

  <FilesMatch \.php$>
    SetHandler "proxy:unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock|fcgi://localhost/"
  </FilesMatch>
  DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.htm

Then "service apache2 restart".
