With 3.2.0, the recommendations for installing a FastCGI instance
changed. There were numerous issues with running setgid. The current
recommendations suggest installing all of RT as the web user or
running suexec. I think most people have chosen suexec. I'm not sure
if you looked at

much more up to date than
