 Should I use a different config? This is confusing because if I use a config without my cgi wrapper defined, I still have my left-over ikiwiki.cgi still in place (so CGI is enabled).
 
 It seems wasteful to update each time when my goal is just to create the HTML pges (since the CGI didn't generate them) as noted in my other bug report.
