What you should do is to do a 'make install' instead of 'make 
install-strip', so that you're running a binary with debug data.  Then, when 
you have some spinning, you'll be able to attach a debugger, and get a 
traceback, even if the process is not making any system calls.  You can also 
try grabbing the process's environment, which will tell you what the cgi was 
invoked for.
