"4.1.13 BPR server responses must contain accurate response ETag header values."

I don't know what "an accurate response" means in this context. Maybe the intention is to say that strong entity tags MUST be used (and not weak ones).

If so, I would rewrite this as: "BPR server responses MUST use strong entity tags as response ETag header values.".

This issue may also include the comments made about the use of ETags by Leigh Dodds (http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ldp-wg/2012Jun/0013.html) and Steve Speicher (http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ldp-wg/2012Jul/0006.html) which led to the need of "crafting the right set of guidance around ETags".
