Thanks for your comments here. I thought I understand what you mean and 
tried the following:

FastCgiServer /var/www/default/php/php -user web-default -group 
web-users -socket default

and in my vhost definition something like

FastCgiExternalServer /fast-cgi/default/php -user web-default -group 
web-users -socket default

But that didn't work, since FastCgiExternalServer isn't allowed in a 
vhost either..?

The current/last approach was to both define those lines outside the 
vhost scope and try to do a

AddHandler php-fastcgi .php
Action php-fastcgi /fast-cgi/default/php

later.. I thought that I can use this virtual path to connect to that 
external server, but - this time no config error, I only (..) get a 404 
with "The requested URL /fast-cgi/default/php/test/index.php was not 
found on this server."
I think I'm still lacking a deeper understanding here.. Can you help out 
again?

I'd love to - but right now I can only come up with ways that _don't_ 
work.. Something like a "Don't try the following" FAQ.. ;-)
