I'm still convinced that this is mainly a packaging problem.

It's rather common for other (debian-like) packages to provide default
apache working configs and to install dependencies (could be optional
too).

It's just a (fast)CGI after all.

Of course the deafult installation must be fine-tuned or tweaked for
production websites but this is also true for all other web
applications.
