Hi Michael,

http://perl.apache.org/embperl/pod/doc/Embperl.-page-13-.htm

You'll notice this:
"Sometimes you want to have a different behaviour. One possibility is to
let Apache display a custom error page (of course only when you run
under mod_perl).

To get this working you need to set the option optReturnError (262144)
in your httpd.conf in the EMBPERL_OPTIONS directive.

With this option set, Embperl sends no output in case of an error. It
returns the error back to Apache or the calling program. When running
under mod_perl this gives you the chance to use the Apache ErrorDocument
directive to show a custom error-document."

The non-existent URL is still calling the Embperl handler, presumably
because Embperl is supposed to take control of that URI-space, or the
request was for an .epl file (that didn't actually exist), so you should
still be able to pass the error back up to Apache, and have mod_perl do
something useful with it.
