location can not be used inside http block, but you can use the fastcgi 
directives here.


The only problem is with fastcgi_param.
I'm not sure, but if you do something like:

http {
    fastcgi_param x y;
    fastcgi_param a b;

    server {
        location / {
            fastcgi_param c d;

            fastcgi_pass ...
        }
    }
}


then the FASTCGI parameters passed to the FASTCGI server at / will 
receive only the c:d pair.

At least this is what happens with wsgi_var in wsgi module.
