I'm setting the status code on a controller action but rspec doesn't
seem to be catching it in my spec. It works in the browser.
This is the controller method, called via xhr with header Accept:
'application/json'

  def validate
    account = Account.new(:login => params[:login])
    account.valid?
    unless (errors = account.errors['login'])
      url = ['http:','', request.host, params[:login]].join('/')
      respond_to do |format|
        format.json { render :json => { :url => url } }
      end
    else
      url = ['http:','', request.host].join('/')
      respond_to do |format|
        format.json { render :json => {:errors => errors, :url =>
url }, :status => 409}
      end
    end
  end

I don't know if it's the cause, but your unless statement is an 
assignment, and not an equality comparison:

unless (errors = account.errors['login'])
