Ran into this one myself - the solution is to remove the DocumentRoot
directive, then just use the SetHandler and similar tags in the body
of the config file, though you can put them in a location container if 
you like.

Here's a couple of files I'm using. They should give you some idea of
the modules you need to have loaded, too:

# This is a minmal set of modules to Apache/mod_pcgi2 going. 

# By default, my apache has mod_log_config complied in. You'll probably
# want it, seeing as that's one of the main things apache does more
# conveniently that Medusa.

# You must have these modules to access the management screens -
# headers sets the authorization header and env sets the
# HTTP_CGI_AUTHORIZATION variable that Zope needs.

LoadModule headers_module     modules/mod_headers.so
LoadModule env_module         modules/mod_env.so

# You'll want these if you want to serve a few static documents or
# images outside of Zope. 

LoadModule mime_module        modules/mod_mime.so
LoadModule alias_module       modules/mod_alias.so

# I used mod_access to control who got access to the site
# while I was building it. It's optional

LoadModule access_module      modules/mod_access.so

# mod_pcgi2 is necessary to access Zope without all that tedious 
# mucking about with CGI scripts and mod_rewrite rules. 

LoadModule pcgi2_module       modules/libpcgi2.so

#  Reconstruction of the complete module list from all available modules
#  (static and shared ones) to achieve correct module execution order.
#  [WHENEVER YOU CHANGE THE LOADMODULE SECTION ABOVE UPDATE THIS, TOO]
