As I'm just looking at this, I can tell:
lighttpd used to have a fastcgi useflag. But now it simply supports fastcgi by default. See #345583

www-servers/cherokee: cgi is required by default if --with-php is selected.  So we use depend on dev-lang/php[cgi] and fcgi is provded automatically.  No use flags.

Pretty sure skunkweb doesn't support cgi.
Comment 4 Dirkjan Ochtman (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-06-20 07:47:05 UTC 
(Or FastCGI, for that matter.)
