I ran into the same issues and heres what I did:

Say no when makecat asks about suexec

After 'makecat'...
chmod u-s /...../(catname).cgi

Make sure the 'catalogs', www, and cgi-bin is owned by the virtual host
user

Add the user 'interch' to the group of the virtual host user

When you restart interchange add 'SocketPerms=666'

If im off, somebody else please let me know, but that is working
flawlessly for me
