This is because your are confusing HTTP status codes and Apache constants. They
are not the same. Apache2::Const::OK (which is what handlers return) is
different from Apache2::Const::HTTP_OK (which is what the browser eventually 
gets).

mod_perl 1 tried to make it easy by translating a '200' that was returned by a
handler into a '0', but it was really just covering mistakes by developers (me
included).
