External setuid binary. It gets installed into the cgi-bin directory
configured in apache, which no one other than the server admin should
have write access to. (This should be in the docs.)

I don't believe so, as the specific configuration of cgiwrap will
generally depend on the circumstances of the site, a one-size-fits-all
RPM generally wouldn't be appropriate.

Sure, it's a pretty simple build if you wanted to do a custom RPM
specific to your installation. Just start with a base spec file for
another package and tweak as required.
