Is this the same bug that used to be in sendfile but got corrected some years back?
Dunno, but it sounds like we really need a comprehensive set of edge-case tests for sendfile.

This was not an edge case. The edge case (no offset, no length, no header) was the one that worked; it was the non-trivial case (non-zero offset, explicit length, non-empty header) that was broken. Nobody noticed because existing code (Apache, ftpd) only exercises the edge case.

I stand corrected. :-)
