Does too.

For Fossil to run FastCGI/SCGI, all that is needed is another command
similar to "fossil server" or "fossil ui".  The "fossil server" listens for
incoming HTTP requests and responds separately to each request.  A "fossil
fastcgi" or "fossil scgi" command would do basically the same thing, except
that it would interpret the FastCGI or SCGI wire protocol rather than HTTP.

Fossil does not support FastCGI or SCGI simply because I do not have ready
access to a webserver that supports those things and hence no way to test
any proposed implementation.
