The right way:

     location /forum/ {
         error_page  404  = /forum/vbseo.php;
     }

     location ^~ /forum/urllist {
         rewrite ^/forum/(urllist.*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$
              /forum/vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 last;
     }

     location ^~ /forum/sitemap_ {
         rewrite ^/forum/(sitemap_.*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$
              /forum/vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 last;
     }

     location ~ ^/forum/.+\.php$ {
         fastcgi_pass   ...;
         fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME  /path/to/forum/vbseo.php;
         fastcgi_param  QUERY_STRING     vbseourl=$request_uri;
         include        fastcgi_params;
     }

     location = /forum/vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php {
         fastcgi_pass   ...;
         fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME
                          /path/to/forum/vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php;
         fastcgi_param  QUERY_STRING     $args;
         include        fastcgi_params;
     }
