This works for me, though it uses the unfortunate valid-group hack with
httpd 2.2 so that no authorizers running before fcgid think they should
evaluate:
<Location /docs>
<IfVersion >= 2.2>
AuthBasicAuthoritative Off
# AuthBasicProvider foo
</IfVersion>
# work around problem with AAA in mod_fcgid (it can't track more than
# one AAA script per URL, and even then the URL can't be handled by a

I hope some "require" experts could jump in ;)
A good solution might be to associate a script with a particular
require-ment so that mod_fcgid can check the Require for any require-ments
implemented by a FastCGI script.
[too] simple example:
FCGIDRequire mydb-user /path/to/my/authorizer.sh
<Location /foo>
Require mydb-user
SetEnv whatever-needed-by-authorizer.sh
</Location>
