	The following directives should be removed:

	AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
	SuexecUserGroup bugzilla bugzilla

	Remove all <Directory> blocks entirely.

	You will also need (in the VirtualHost):

	ServerAlias bugzilla-attachments.gnome.org

	Which should have its DNS pointed to bugzilla-web.

	For now we probably also want (in the VirtualHost):

	ServerAlias bugzilla-test.gnome.org

	With its DNS pointed to bugzilla-web.

	If you have an SSL certificate for bugzilla.gnome.org, we may also want 
to set up SSL (which will involve Bugzilla configuration as well).

	Finally, outside of any VirtualHost blocks, the following two lines 
need to be added:

	PerlSwitches -I/var/www/bugzilla.gnome.org 
-I/var/www/bugzilla.gnome.org/lib -w -T
    PerlConfigRequire /var/www/bugzilla.gnome.org/mod_perl.pl

	They can be before or after the VirtualHost--it shouldn't matter.

	Yeah, I'd say we should go ahead and allow it, for now. It looks like 
all those rewriterules can be commented-out.
