That'd be "CGIs".

Anyway, suexec has the expected Apache user and group hardwired into it.
Changing the user and group of the APache server _will_ stop it working
because it will infer that's it's being invoked by someone who isn't
the web server, which would be a security violation. This should be
being logged in one of apache's logs, btw.

Yes.

Yes.

Your only fix is to either turn off suexec (just move it sideways
to, say, /usr/sbin/suexec.disabled - and "chmod 0" it for safety),
or to recompile it with the new user/group settings.
