One important difference between mod_php and FastCGI is that mod_php 
runs PHP in the same process as Apache and thus uses the same user, 
whereas fastCGI uses its own user. It might be the problem in your 
installation that the FCGI user has different permissions on the TYPO3 
files than the Apache user. If this leads to the situation that this 
user cannot determine that the tslib directory is actually a directory 
the error you mentioned will occur.

This is not really a problem that TYPO3 can solve; the administrator 
must make sure that the user that runs PHP has the correct rights for 
the files that TYPO3 uses.

In the distant past there were problems detecting if the scripts were 
called from the command line or from a browser, but in this area 
detecting fastCGI should work correctly.
