I found the following similar question on the archives:

http://www.apsis.ch/pound/pound_list/archive/2009/2009-03/1236583386000

However it doesn't seem to work (ldd shows pound compiled against pcre 
libs).

with the original configuration i posted, browsing to site.com/ 
redirects to the userdir server and gives a 404. Browsing to 
site.com/~user does NOT redirect to the userdir server and gives a 404 
generated on the normal webserver but if i add a trailing slash to that 
url then it redirects to the userdir server correctly and shows the 
users content..

Not sure what the heck is going on here or how to debug it :(
