That's not as easy as mod_rewrite, because you'd also have to do this:

<Location /cvsweb>
Options +ExecCGI
# whatever other special options are necessary for the directory
</Location>

That would result in unnecesssary duplication of information (plus the
Alias command duplicated the physical path to the cgi-bin directory).
Using the rewrite option I suggested uses less code and is more elegant,
although enabling the rewrite parser does incur some performance loss.
