We have a general policy of not "un-documenting" supported features.

But I thing it would be a great idea to remove that mention in the
first sentence and include somewhat later a statement like "For
backward-compatibility, the cgi-script handler will also be activated
for any file with the mime-type application/x-httpd-cgi. The use of
the magic mime-type is deprecated."

Patch attached. I also removed the reference to mod_cgi setting the
DOCUMENT_ROOT env var, given that this is one of several vars set by
util_script.c and an uninteresting one at that. However, I tend to
agree with Andre's comment in that file suggesting that the link to
the howto is sufficient.

So, assuming that the cgi howto documents the old mime type hack
somewhere, should we remove the first paragraphs and just leave the
link to the howto and the mention of mod_cgid?
