Probably it is a bug in the server. The application called through the web server need an authentication. If it is missing or wrong then it return a 401 trying to tell the client the reason of the fault. But since the authentication is not done at http level it can't add the WWW-Authenticate header line with the methods accepted. IMHO this is wrong.
