Luke,

I'm looking in to this on tilde.pink. So far, the only way I could get a 
cgi script located in a user directory to work was to create a symbolic 
link directly to /var/gemini/cgi-bin/. So far, no one has implemented a 
server that acts like gophernicus or geomyidae, allowing for scripts to be 
run from any served directory.

I don't know how this is handled by webservers that support ~user 
accounts.
