Yes, i've changed the relavent values to /scripts/, in both values for CGI
folders, but it still handles the same. This is really puzzling.

Have you configured Xitami to think that "/scripts/" indicates your
cgi-bin directory?  If not, then it'll never try to run the program,
and just send it to the browser.
