Okay, I see - so it is serving up HTTP 200 because I have a "catchall"
server_name _ somewhere.

I will explain this to the "security company" that did the audit of
our server, that per RFC, it should accept this kind of request, it is
the -action- that is the issue. Maybe also we just failed because I
issued an HTTP 200 instead of a 404 due to the catchall.
