Getting to Step Two means that it found an address and Step Two itself is

could refuse the connection on a particular port for some reason such as the
site is down, or whatever.   If this happens and Apache is configured to
ProxyRequests, the status is set to HTTP_NOT_FOUND, which really isnt the
case, the server refused the connection it's not that the page wasn't found.

I ran into this recently, I suspect this is definitely a bug.

Am I mistaken is thinking that r->proxyreq == PROXYREQ_PROXY  is always true
when ProxyRequests is set to On in the configuration? If so how do I force
the HTTP_SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE instead of the HTTP_NOT_FOUND? Do I have to
patch this myself and recompile it?

Potentially you could patch it and submit it for inclusion into the server, at which point you won't need to worry about patching it again in the future.
