Question *AMP Security: suPHP and CGI

Quote from the suPHP documentation:

Quote:
Please note, that running mod_suphp and mod_php concurrently can be
*VERY DANGEROUS* and should be avoided. The same applies to CGI
scripts which are run with webserver privileges.

suPHP should only be used if you are using no CGI scripts or if all CGI
scripts are run using suExec.
Does this warning apply to ALL CGI scripts or to PHP CGI scripts only? ... I've scouted the internet for security guidelines regarding this issue but none seem to cover suPHP.

I'm asking this because I would like to use suPHP and PERL scripts (handler for PL files) concurrently. Are there any security implications?
