Uhm, Util filter also defines:
/** Returned by the bottom-most filter if no data was written.
 *  @see ap_pass_brigade(). */
#define AP_NOBODY_WROTE         -1
/** Returned by the bottom-most filter if no data was read.
 *  @see ap_get_brigade(). */
#define AP_NOBODY_READ          -2
/** Returned when?? @bug find out when! */
#define AP_FILTER_ERROR         -3


To be honest, I don't think these are used as they should be, and this is also a pain since DECLINED is -1, so there was already an overlap.

If anything, change the ones in util_filter.h to different numbers, but better yet, remove them all, and have _one_ place for return values from a handler and the filters you pass to directly to be defined.

Note that AP_FILTER_ERROR can be returned by a handler that calls
ap_discard_request_body(), in the same contexts that checking against
SUSPENDED is intersting

I was looking to add an additional clause to the IGNORE_HTTP_RANGE
checking in ap_invoke_handler, but found in trunk it wasn't necessary
because of the overlap:

     if ((result != OK) && (result != DONE) && (result != DECLINED) &&
(result != SUSPENDED)
+        && (result != AP_FILTER_ERROR)  /* no-op on trunk due to SUSPENDED */
         && !ap_is_HTTP_VALID_RESPONSE(result)) {
         /* If a module is deliberately returning something else
          * (request_rec in non-HTTP or proprietary extension?)

(ap_die ignores AP_FILTER_ERROR, but not when it's been transformed
from -3 to 500 by the code above -- LimitRequestBody with a custom
ErrorDocument is busted on 2.2.x due to this)
