I'm not even sure you need the Directory directive, either. I think that 
ScriptAlias removes the need to declare a CGI handler, which is mostly 
what the Directory section does. See these pages for details:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_alias.html#scriptalias
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/cgi.html

Of course, if you have other .cgi scripts in the script directory, you 
will need the Directory directive for those unless you start using 
ScriptAlias for them as well.
