Well, according to that documentation, this compiled parameter sets the
subdir under user's home (from /etc/passwd), such as "public_html", that
would be used to suexec scripts owned by a user when processing the
Apache's "UserDir" option.

If I read (and remember) this correctly, then as long as your users'
scripts are anywhere under "/home/$username/public_html", the compiled
"suexec-userdir=/home" should work.

What you described in the original post seems more like the second
option, --with-suexec-docroot, no?
