namazu.cgi is binary executable.  Make sure the executable bit is set
on it.

There is more than one way to configure apache to execute the program
as a CGI program.  Usually, just reading the default httpd.conf file
that comes with apache provides enough comments on how to do it.
You could either define a ScriptAlias or have,

AddHandler cgi-script .cgi

And then set the ExecCGI option for the directory containing namazu.cgi.

See the apache docs for more information.
