I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish by defining an error
page for a 401 status; my understanding is that a 401 just triggers
the login dialog for the browser - there's no HTML or other data to
display with the status.

If the client aborts (such as too many attempts or user chooses "cancel"
instead of submitting credentials), the 401 page will be displayed, so
there is some utility in defining a page for this status if HTTP Auth
will be used.

Let's nitpick here.
If you're using IE, you may define 401 pages all you want, it's going to show its own anyway.

(ok, unless you think of making your 401 page larger than 1024 bytes or so, and probably also turn off its "friendly error messages" option).
