Bug description: When ErrorDocument 401 is set to a php file, Status 200 is returned not 401
This is an elaboration of bug #1820 with enough info to hopefully allow it to be fixed.
With apache, setting an ErrorDocument for 401 Auth Required to be a php file causes a status of 200
to be returned to the client instead of the correct status of 401.
This totally screws up password-protected websites!
Workaround is to manually set the 401 header with the header function.
