[TriLUG] Apache question: su_exec and group permissions

Hello,

I like to use Apache's su_exec feature to allow folks CGI access with as
much security as possible.  (Yes, CGI access at all is a security
problem of some degree, I understand that.)  However, su_exec always
fails when the CGI directory has group write permissions.  Changing the
permissions to 755 for the directories and CGI files fixes this, but I
need the permissions to be 775.

Is there any way to configure su_exec to allow group write permissions?
