Configure Apache httpd to ignore/block a specific HTTP method?

Is it possible to configure Apache httpd to ignore/block a specific HTTP method? If so, how?

From serverfault J. Pablo Fernández

• Use a <Limit> or <LimitExcept> section.

  J. Pablo Fernández : Do you know what to put inside it to block it? Deny from all doesn't work.
