config_setserver_fcgiparams() always sends imsg to PROC_SERVER:
	if (proc_composev(ps, PROC_SERVER, IMSG_CFG_FCGI, iov, c) != 0)

But is called inside proc loop:
	for (id = 0; id < PROC_MAX; id++) {
...
		if (id == PROC_SERVER &&
		    (srv->srv_conf.flags & SRVFLAG_LOCATION) == 0) {
...
			/* Configure TLS if necessary. */
			config_setserver_tls(env, srv);
		} else {
...
			/* Configure FCGI parameters if necessary. */
			config_setserver_fcgiparams(env, srv);
		}
	}

The same applies to config_setserver_tls() > config_settls():
	if (proc_composev(ps, PROC_SERVER, IMSG_CFG_TLS, iov, c) != 0)

Thus, I think the correct fix is to move those two outside the loop.
And while there, check the return value.
