Lighttpd

Config: OSX/freebsd-kqueue/cgi/setenv
Perl: v5.8.6

If the CGI script fails, it somitimes gives a 200 with empty page instead of 500, the errors to STDOUT clearly come into the log that an error DID happen.

script:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use base 'some_module_not_found';

print "Content-Type: text/plain\r\n\r\n";
print "You really have some_module_not_found.pm ?!\n";
