And the double fault (missing custom page) is just plain incompetence,
although very common incompetence.

Incidentally, people should use subjects like "Lynx Rejected 406 Not 
Acceptable; Mozilla Succeeds", rather than "Help" or "BUG Report", when 
submitting presumed bug reports to lists and forums.  They also 
shouldn't accuse software of bugs when they clearly know that the the 
fault lies in the web server.
