This doesn't really work for the 500 template. In testing with this urlconf, your 500 template will be rendered with context from all your context processors. In a real 500 error, Django does not make that context available and your 500 template could look very different (if, say, you depend on media_url to get media).
And generating a real 404 is never very hard to do.
