403 might be slightly better if we're to pick nits. (The server is
forbidding itself from generating the response.) But, very few
programs care what the specific 4xx code is if isn't 404 or 401.

I do like the status line though. ;-) Keeping it distinctive may let
it be easier for clients to figure out what a 403 in this case means
when they put it into Google as ra_dav will print the status line in
the error displayed to the user. ra_serf is likely to wind up doing
the same; now, it'd just abort(). ;-) -- justin
