Has anyone had any luck getting a plugin to extract a file into the users cgi directory?

If you select the user cgi directory with the Plugin Wizard it trys to extract the file to:
which errors out on my server. My next thought was to manually direct it there, however, unless I am totally missing something, Links is only saving the user cgi URL, not the path... Making an extraction to that directory impossible.

Am I missing something here?
