workaround via apache/mod_php:

> cat 503.php
<?php

header( 'HTTP/1.0 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable' );
header( 'Retry-After: 600' );
header( 'Content-Type: text/html' );

print(
        "<html>"."\x0d\x0a".
        "<head><title>503 Service Temporarily Unavailable</title></head>"."\x0d\x0a".
        "<body bgcolor=\"white\">"."\x0d\x0a".
        "<center><h1>503 Service Temporarily Unavailable</h1></center>"."\x0d\x0a".
        "<hr><center>nginx</center>"."\x0d\x0a".
        "</body>"."\x0d\x0a".
        "</html>"."\x0d\x0a"
    );

> cat headers
