No there isn't, but you might achieve this with
PerlSetVar MailErrorsTo email@address
since what would have been the Debug 2 output goes
to that email address, but doesn't leave any error
for the customer to see, besides the splash screen
you create for ErrorDocument 500.
You can also set MailAlertTo for real time event
notification of these errors. See the
http://www.apache-asp.org/config.html#Mail%20Administration
section for more info.

PS. I had always thought it awfully rude when I visited ASP
sites that burdened customers with their error messages,
so what I proscribe above was an intentional replacement
to what you suggest, funny.
