Short Answer: http://pear.php.net/package/HTTP_WebDAV_Client

Long Answer: Although the content is tossed out, you can see the status 
codes and any other headers in $http_response_header whether the http 
request returned a "valid" response code or not.

That said, a context option to optionally accept additional response codes 
*may* be in order.
