Quick update, the answer to my question in reading the source code is to 
set FORCE_SCRIPT_NAME=/wsgi-app/ from the example below. It also seems that 
the trailing slash in the WSGIScriptAlias is not appropriate, so the 
directive should be:
WSGIScriptAlias /wsgi-app ...

It also seems, as per this Django 
issue: https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/12464#comment:16

A whole bunch of other sites also propose overwriting with 
request.META['SCRIPT_NAME'] and the request.environ['SCRIPT_NAME'] in 
wsgy.py or to use Apache to manually set X-SCRIPT_NAME to this value, It 
seems they all work in different ways, but the most straight-forward seems 
to be the FORCE_SCRIPT_NAME in settings.py
