[Zope] Apache to Zope/Plone with ProxyPass - how can I get Apache cgi scripts?

[Simon Forster]

Can you not modify the ProxyPass and ProxyPassReverse directives? 
Something like:

ProxyPass /zope/ http://erebus:8080/zope/erebus_plone/
ProxyPassReverse /zope/ http://erebus:8080/zope/erebus_plone/

Then all requests to http://erebus.ait.ie/zope/ get redirected to port 
8080, all others are processed by Apache as normal. At least that's my 
understanding of the docs.

Oh. Being a pedant I'd prefer:

ProxyPass /zope/ http://127.0.0.1:8080/zope/erebus_plone/
ProxyPassReverse /zope/ http://127.0.0.1:8080/zope/erebus_plone/

But that's just 'cause I'd be able to see that it's looping back to the 
local machine.
