[users@httpd] Documentation problem ?

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/vhosts/mass.html#xtra-conf
in the section
Simple dynamic virtual hosts using mod_rewrite
the example, at the end, shows this set of rules :

## and now deal with CGIs - we have to force a MIME type
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/cgi-bin/
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ /www/hosts/${lowercase:%{SERVER_NAME}}/cgi-bin/$1 
[T=application/x-httpd-cgi]

Would this not result in a URI like "../cgi-bin/cgi-bin/..." ?

Anyone have a prettier choice, I dislike both of these (ugly capture,
repeating "cgi-bin")

[ ] RewriteRule  ^/(cgi-bin/.*)$
/www/hosts/${lowercase:%{SERVER_NAME}}/$1  [H=cgi-script]<br />
[ ] RewriteRule  ^/cgi-bin/(.*)$
/www/hosts/${lowercase:%{SERVER_NAME}}/cgi-bin/$1  [H=cgi-script]<br
/>
