>Description:
<!--#exec cmd="./test.cgi"-->

should NOT work. we have ExecCGI disabled. But we want users to be able
to still run #exec cgi and #exec cmd provided they are running things in our
cgi-bin area.
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
have #exec cmd not allow things to be executed in directories that have
ExecCGI turned off.
