Also, I followed the instructions mostly, but tried to keep it simpler. 
I put the validator stuff under /usr/local/validator-0.6.7 with a link 
to it from /usr/local/validator

Then I changed the check script to refer to the config here and not /etc/w3c

Then I changed the validator.conf to refer to things correctly

Then I changed the includedd httpd.conf to be this:

ScriptAlias /w3c-validator/check /usr/local/validator/httpd/cgi-bin/check
Alias /w3c-validator/ "/usr/local/validator/htdocs/"

<Directory /usr/local/validator/htdocs>
   Options               FollowSymLinks IncludesNOEXEC Indexes MultiViews
   AllowOverride         None
   AddHandler            server-parsed .html
   AddCharset            utf-8         .html
   Order allow,deny
   Allow from all
</Directory>

<Directory /usr/local/validator/httpd/cgi-bin>
   Options               FollowSymLinks ExecCGI IncludesNOEXEC Indexes 
MultiViews
   AllowOverride         None
   AddHandler            server-parsed .html
   AddCharset            utf-8         .html
   Order allow,deny
   Allow from all
</Directory>



and everything is happy and I'm not putting files all over the place
