Okay . . . well, at least I wasn't asking how to do something trivial that 
three minutes of looking at docs would have told me. *sigh*

I suppose a typical real-world case has cgi-bin (whatever it happens to be 
named in real life) and document_root (ditto) as siblings, but there's no 
general solution for "what's document_root's real name." Is the best I can 
do, do you suppose, to put a nice big line near the beginning of the file 
that says:

# IMPORTANT: change $doc_root='../htdocs/' to the actual path (absolute, or 
relative to cgi-bin) on your system

or is there a better way that suggests itself?
