Sorry for being confused. But maybe my question was not completely correct.
mod_disk_cache does not restore r->status directly but it restores the status
information to cache->handle->cache_obj->info.status. This gives mod_cache the
opportunity to restore r->status from this (as my patch does). The problem is
that mod_mem_cache does not seem to restore the status information at all from
its storage. This way mod_cache has no chance to restore it in this case.
I agree with you that mod_cache should set r->status with the information
restored by the provider to cache->handle->cache_obj->info.status.
mod_cache should take the final decision if it does that or not. This decision
should not be done by the providers.

But all cache providers have to store it in their storage and have to restore it
from there to the caching data structure. Maybe this is what you wanted to say?
