Worth adding that the apache port will also overwrite cgi-bin.default;
if you have <webroot>/cgi-bin symlinked to that, you are also hosed.

Though it's easy enough to notice this, I too don't see why this
particular gotcha needs to be in the port.  Why not just let the
port create empty data and cgi-bin directories rather than symlinks?

This is really off-topic for freebsd-security, but those of you who've
lost web site content might want to look again.
