Yes, I believe the order is significant since the output is
screwy if you flip the order  of  the key/value pairs below:

my $cgi =CGI->new;
print $cgi->header(-type => "text/html",
                               -last_modified => "Tue, 02 Feb 2010
00:00:00 GMT");


Output:
Last-modified: Tue, 02 Feb 2010 00:00:00 GMT
Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1

Note:  -type a CGI shortcut for Content-type.
