I eventually found a solution.  Whether it is the right one I don't 
know, but I have to redefine document root after I have included the 
common fastcgi_params file.

     location = /myapp {
         rewrite ^ /myapp/ permanent;
     }

     location /myapp/ {
         alias /home/alan/dev/myapp/web/;
         index index.php;
     }

     location ~ ^/myapp/(.*\.php)$ {
         alias /home/alan/dev/myapp/web/$1;
         include fastcgi_params;
         fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_ROOT /home/alan/dev/test-base;
         fastcgi_index index.php;
     #    fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
         fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm-alan.sock;
     }
