igor,
i changed this and tried. it does not have any affect on the url mapping. my
fastcgi backend still gets the same url as before.
this is what i see, with the change you had given.
xx.com/yy ---> xx.com/yy

while this is what i want on the webapp/fastcgi backend
xx.com/yy --> xx.com/xx.com/yy
im pasting my full config here:

#user nobody;
worker_processes 1;

error_log /home/app/error_all.log;
pid /home/app/nginx.pid;

events {
worker_connections 1024;
}

http {
include mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;
client_header_buffer_size 8k;
large_client_header_buffers 4 8k;
fastcgi_buffers 32 4k;
fastcgi_buffer_size 4k;
sendfile on;

server_names_hash_bucket_size 64;
keepalive_timeout 5;

gzip on;
gzip_comp_level 1;
gzip_proxied private;
gzip_buffers 8 4k;


upstream backend_flock{
server app1.XXX.com:8492 fail_timeout=1s;
}
server {
listen 8080;
access_log /home/app/access_flock.log;

client_max_body_size 10m;

location /static {
root /home/app/work/flock;
}
location / {
root /home/app/work/flock;

fastcgi_pass backend_flock;

fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /$host$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param QUERY_STRING $query_string;
fastcgi_param CONTENT_TYPE $content_type;
fastcgi_param CONTENT_LENGTH $content_length;
fastcgi_param REQUEST_METHOD $request_method;
fastcgi_param REMOTE_ADDR $remote_addr;
fastcgi_param REMOTE_PORT $remote_port;
fastcgi_param SERVER_PROTOCOL $server_protocol;
fastcgi_param SERVER_ADDR $server_addr;
fastcgi_param SERVER_PORT $server_port;
fastcgi_param SERVER_NAME $server_name;

}

}
}
