 As for your .setup file you can put it anywhere. I don't  think the CGI knows where it is at because its settings are set in the "wrapper".
 In my case, my setup file is in a different home and owned by a different user than the CGI or my generated website. By the way, I also don't keep my .ikiwiki private directory in my source directory by setting wikistatedir (which doesn't seem to be documented).
