Thanks for the clarification, so if a server is responding with "Internal Error 
500" (say on a PHP script) pound would continue to direct traffic to the 
server?  Is this the same with all 5xx errors?  Does pound simply check for a 
socket response, or  does it check for an HTTP status?

HTTP 500 level is not considered "server failure".  "Server failure" is
a state in which connection can not be established.
