You're right. Your configuration code (without +ExecCGI) worked on my
system (Apache2, Debian 3.1 i386), so I can't say why it doesn't work
for you.
Interesting, I've been putting ExecCGI into options for years, thought
it was required.
Did some tinkering, commented out that option and Add-Handler which I
also thought was required and my cgi code still worked.
#Options ExecCGI
#AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
Then I found that if I commented out this line:
LoadModule cgi_module modules/mod_cgi.so
My cgi code no longer worked, it just displayed the source of my perl
code in the browser window.
Do you have a load module for mod_cgi in your httpd.conf file?
BTW - this was with Apache/2.2.4 on fedora 6.
