[Zope] PCGI vs FastCGI under Apache?

Fundamentally, my question is "should I try PCGI or FastCGI?", but
first, some background.
I'm planning on running Zope under Apache. While the site root will map
to Zope, there are legacy applications I want to be able to run, thus
the Apache. To avoid possible firewall hastles, I essentially want Zope
and Apache operations taking place on the same port (80).
For an authentication mechanism, I want to use LDAP. So I'm thinking
that I'll be having Apache do the LDAP authentication, and add the
RewriteRule to pass authentication info to Zope.
But how should I run Zope? I'm not really clear on what works/is
stable. It sounds like mod_pcgi2 is revision 0.1.0, so I'm nervous
about going with that. And it sounds like the fastcgi support is
relatively new to Zope, and requires that I fetch a development snapshot
for fastcgi.
Are there other options I haven't figured out yet?
For those of you who have done this, what works for you?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
