Yes, it is an error. But in this case, I, too, consider the error erroneous.
A status code of 400 basically means that the request was syntactically
b0rked. But, as I understand it, that's not the problem here: the
request is syntactically fine - it fails because the server is
misconfigured. Therefore a status code of 500 seems more appropriate to me.
