It is possible to use the CGI version. It is done by putting the
php.exe in the Pi3Web/cgi-bin/ folder. Then it is handled as any
other CGI program.
I do not reccomend to upgrade to PHP4.2.3RC1, because this is a release
candidate under test. The php team may update the RC frequently, until
4.2.3 is released. This would be the best target for upgrading PHP4
support in Pi3Web.

It is simple to use all script languages as CGI. Perl should work
'out of the box' if perl.exe is in the search path.
For others you may add mime types for content-mapping and the line
how to invoke the interpreter to the configuration.
To make many script languages available as a 'simple plugin' will
slow down the server, because the extended configuration logic
has to be interpreted per client request in order to fork the correct
script interpreter.

Refer to the documentation, e.g.: 
http://localhost/pidocs/Objects/HTTP.html#ExpressionLogger

A customized logging can currently only be configured in
./Pi3Web/Conf/Config.pi3 (without admin GUI support).

Regarding the SSL issue I need some more time to look into it.
