Comment(by filter@…):

 The error did not occur when installing on 10.6 using Apple's built in
 version of apache2. The error did occur when performing an identical
 installation on 10.5 also using Apple's built in version of apache2. So,
 it would seem that p5-cgi-speedycgi still does work, as it installed and
 runs without a hitch over buit in apache2 on my 10.6 system:

 $ httpd -v
 Server version: Apache/2.2.17 (Unix)

 $ ps -ax | grep speedy
  3387 ??         0:00.40 /opt/local/bin/speedy_backend
 /opt/local/var/smokeping/smokeping.cgi
  3390 ??         0:48.40 /opt/local/bin/speedy_backend
 /opt/local/var/smokeping/smokeping.cgi

 Yet, I still can't get it to run on 10.5:

 $ httpd -v
 Server version: Apache/2.2.14 (Unix)

 $ sudo apachectl -k restart
 httpd: Syntax error on line 116 of /private/etc/apache2/httpd.conf: Cannot
 load /usr/libexec/apache2/mod_speedycgi.so into server:
 dlopen(/usr/libexec/apache2/mod_speedycgi.so, 10): no suitable image
 found.  Did find:\n\t/usr/libexec/apache2/mod_speedycgi.so: mach-o, but
 wrong architecture

 I am comfortable with installing macports apache and with having both
 versions installed, but just prefer to use built in version when possible.
 It clearly can work, as I've got it to do so on the 10.6 host without a
 problem. According to your note, it would seem that this is a miracle, as
 p5-cgi-speedycgi shouldn't be able to work at all. Is there a way that I
 can figure out how and why it is managing to work on the 10.6 machine? I
 am sure that it is using the built in version of apache. The configuration
 file for the built in version is the only one that has LoadModule
 speedycgi_module modules/mod_speedycgi.so enabled, and shutting down the
 server from the Sharing control panel shuts down the smokeping site.

 Regarding the apple_apache option, I think it's optimal to give users as
 much choice as possible -- a user may already have a fairly sophisticated
 and/or in-production configuration of Apple's apache already set up when
 electing to install smokeping. I personally appreciated discovering that
 the apple_apache option existed. Thanks!
