In nginx, one requests is handled in one location.

http://nginx.org/r/location describes how the one location is chosen
for a particular request.

You have:

> location / {
> location ~ ^/~(.+?)(/.*)?$ {
> location = /50x.html {
> location ~ (^~)*\.php$ {
> location ~ (^~)*\.pl|cgi$ {
> location ~ .*~.*\.php$ {
> location ~ .*~.*\.pl|cgi$ {

According to the description, the requests /~user/index.cgi and
/~user/index.php are both handled in the second location there,
which says:

> location ~ ^/~(.+?)(/.*)?$ {
> alias /home/$1/public_html$2;
> index index.html index.htm;
> autoindex on;

which says "serve the file /home/user/public_html/index.cgi (or index.php)
from the filesystem, with no further processing". And that is what you
see -- one file does not exist, do you get 404; the other file does exist,
so you get it.

To make things work, you will need to arrange your location{} blocks
so that the one that you want nginx to use to process a request, is the
one that nginx does choose to process a request.

And then make sure that you know what mapping you want nginx to use for
*this* request should be handled by processing *this* file through *that*
fastcgi server (or whatever is appropriate).

Good luck with it,
