Comment (by xurizaemon):

 Bump. This code shouldn't generate a 404 header in an external file that
 wants to access WP things, but rather only if WordPress can't find the
 content.

 My js.php file parses fine, but WP(2.0) returns a 404 header as a special
 bonus. So (as a crude workaround) I just rewrote the headers I didn't
 like, once wp-blog-header.php had done its filth.

 Alternatively, some other non-404ing method should be available to use
 WP's functions without it owning the headers. (Perhaps I missed that in
 the docs.)

 <?
   define('WP_USE_THEMES', false) ;
   require('../../../wp-blog-header.php');
   header("HTTP/1.1 200 OK");
   header("Status: 200 All rosy") ;
  ?>

 404 should only get set IF wordpress really is dealing with the request,
 IMO.
