Ah, I didn't realise the wiki was open for contributions.  Also didn't
realise my institutional credentials would work as well - nice.  

The canonical place for this documentation is now at
https://wiki.shibboleth.net/confluence/display/SHIB2/Integrating+Nginx+and+a+Shibboleth+SP+with+FastCGI

The specific platform I'm using is RHEL6, x86_64.  

My thought was whether FastCGI-enabled Shibboleth SP Linux/EL packages could
be built along side the standard packages.  Whilst  FastCGI packages aren't
a default inclusion in EL repositories, having a requirement of using the
custom build that the user needs to install the fcgi package first seems
reasonable.  I'm open to ideas here -- I'm keen to avoid needing to manually
rebuild the Shibboleth SP for each new version.

Thanks,
David
