what you did is to compile the fastCGI-lib but not the apache-module.

Download the apache-module from http://www.fastcgi.com/dist/ (look for
mod_fastcgi-x.x.x.tar.gz) and read the INSTALL.AP2 for detailed
instructions to create the module.

I just startet joining the mailing-list so i do not know if there is
nothing going on with fastCGI any more, but fastCGI seems to be stable
at all so there is no need for new upgrades.
The apache 2.2-support i have not yet tested.

Best wishes,
Dennis
