> When trying to call a non-existing view document the server returns an HTTP 500 message. 
> It is expected that a 404 message would be returned instead. 
> Example:
> GET /porcupine/_view/wikipage/hierarchy?startkey=%5B%22Home%22%5D&endkey=%5B%22Home%22%2C2%5D HTTP/1.1
> Date: Thu, 17 Apr 08 23:41:36 +0300
> HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error
> Transfer-Encoding: chunked
> Server: MochiWeb/1.0 (Any of you quaids got a smint?)
> Date: Thu, 17 Apr 2008 20:41:36 GMT
