Apache LimitExcept not behaving as expected

limitexcept

I have the following directive in my Apache httpd.conf:

<LimitExcept OPTIONS PROPFIND REPORT>
   deny from all
</LimitExcept>

OPTIONS and PROPFIND work as expected, but REPORT returns 400: Bad Request. Removing the LimitExcept alltogether and everything works as expected.

Any ideas on why this might be?

(This is the implementation of my question here).
