I was talking to our sys admin. about allowing us users to run cgi

"system:anyuser rl") and asked if the web server could do this and was
told first that the CMU AFS team was working on a way to make CGI
principles for andrew (AFS realm) users so we can support them on
contrib (AFS realm) and then later told they ran into a problem with
permissions but had to work on the code a bit more. This was 8 months
ago and still waiting for this to be finished. [...]

You might want to look at https://lists.openafs.org/pipermail/openafs-info/2002-May/004471.html to see how we run our GCI scripts out of AFS. It lacks some of the elegance of http://www.umbc.edu/oit/iss/syscore/wiki/Mod_waklog, but it has served us very well. Whereas Mod_waklog uses a real Apache module, we use a ScriptAlias to an external program to fix up the runtime environment for user's scripts.

Cheers,
