It  is indeed.   But suExec  has to  be patched[1]  to allow  php to  be
executed by any user running it, as  plain suExec requires the cgi to be
owned by the user  running it.  If you don't patch it,  you will need to
copy the cgi in every user's directory.

I have a full description of that system if you need it.
