perl. c is quite "bad" for cgi things, since you spend half your time messing about allocating space for various strings, arrays and misc data. higher level languages tend to be more suited. to get perl working with apache, you only need execcgi and #!/usr/bin/perl afaik. although you can speed up with mod_perl. additionally, perl syntax is a mix of sh/c/awk/sed/etc. php database stuff tends to be easily replaced with perl's DBI.
Perl is a write only language. I looked into it and it made no sense what so ever. If you want a weird language like this use LISP. almost everything perl does can be done with sed and awk.
I'm sure
#!/usr/bin/perl

/* might just work with perl */
