It depends on your Apache configuration. .cgi is probably most common, especially on shared hosts, but sometimes it won't work either, and the file has to be in cgi-bin (usually for security). I think it can be set so that any executable in cgi-bin will get called too. But yeah, naming it .cgi by default would be best.
