Snippet:
 neo_cgi.c: In function 'p_cgi_error':
 neo_cgi.c:181:3: error: format not a string literal and no format arguments [-Werror=format-security]

The problem bould be solved with:

+++ b/python/neo_cgi.c
@@ -178,7 +178,7 @@
   if (!PyArg_ParseTuple(args, "s:error(str)", &s))
     return NULL;

-  cgi_error (cgi, s);
+  cgi_error (cgi, "%s", s);
   rv = Py_None;
   Py_INCREF(rv);
   return rv;

Please, apply this patch as soon as possible.
