For the archives...

I think I may have found the culprit.  Two entries in httpd.conf related to
mod_security seems to silently whack some portion of the installation of FP
'widgets' from the Cobalt GUI.  Removing these lines, restart httpd and
remove/re-add and all was well in the world.  Existing sites were not
affected since it only appears to be an issue when the GUI calls the FP
v-site installation script(s) and existing sites already had the FP mess
scattered in their directories.

These were the two that were removed...
SecFilter "\.\./"
SecFilter "<[[:space:]]*script"
