Just to clarify, I meant 

 location ~ \.php$ {
  fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:1234;
  include fastcgi_params;
  fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /www_root$fastcgi_script_name;
  fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME $fastcgi_script_name;
  fastcgi_intercept_errors on; 
  error_page 404 = /index.php;
 }

works. I used "..." instead of retyping the whole thing to save a few keystrokes
but don't know why it didn't show.
