In our environment   for testing purposes 

we set up a web server with the document root of   /home/htdig-test
and the script alias of                            /home/htdig-test/cgi-bin

We then build htdig   with  --prefix=/home/htdig-test

It would be nice if this scenario worked without any changes to the
installed files.

And furthermore, if your htsearch binary is in cgi-bin, then the 
server will often have problems fetching images from that directory.

Again, I'll echo what Gilles said--this has never been a bug, only an 
issue of misconfiguration. If you have any suggestions on how to 
improve the configuration process, they'd be appreciated.
