In fact in mod_python one has to raise an exception with the return value to get the error page to be served. I can't remember how it works in mod_perl. I had an expectation that PHP would be parsing the returned header and internally redirecting to the errordocument if necessary. I guess that doesn't make any sense because the page the error is generated from might have content that shouldn't be discarded. It might make sense to do this on exit(x) if x>0 but I'm not sure.
