That's a kind of pessimistic view of "scratch own itch" ;-) As far as I understand mod_fcgid with Apache 2.x is the way to go because of the troubles with the mod_fastcgi implementation of fastCGI for Apache 1.x. Mongrel is an alternative, and simpler approach, based in the use of a well know and workinf technology: reverse proxies. SimpleCGI (first Zed try) as a protocol is really simple compared to FastCGI, wich is really powerful but complex. But I am not sure where are the Lighty + fastCGI issues reported ... What have been reporte are the problems with proxy.
