Default program for CGI

Is it possible to specify a handler for files in CGI?
I.e. have:

SomeDirectiveCGI .pl /usr/bin/perl

I'd like to install a PHP script on server where PHP is available only
through SuExec due to security reasons. And adding such option
to .htaccess would be much simpler to maintain then adding to each file
(especially that I don't know how does it react with php include):
#!/path/to/php

I haven't found anything similar in documentation but before submitting
bug I prefer to ask here.

Regards

You may want to check out this article-
http://www.itech7.com/Linux/Apache2-PHP-FastCGI-SuExec

After a lot of struggling I was able to do this. Also its better to use
FastCGI over standard CGI for performance reasons.

I cannot - it is either not installed or blocked. I will talk today to
figure out which.

Are you trying to configure it in .htaccess ? If so, it won't work.

Yes. I have page in userdir.

I can ask however admin to change global configuration as long as it
will be in SuExec.
