Thank you. As Daniel stated, if the issues are not raised, then they are *not* issues/blockers. Per my comments in 3979, I feel that one is the most critical. I believe that we need to probe the server to determine whether some broken crap has been interposed. I'm of a mind to say "fix your shit", but also know that we can do something to work around the problem. Justin's patch is interesting, but I believe it "happens to work", and a higher-level solution is needed. I also believe that 3980 is simply server-misconfiguration: servers/proxies need to enable caching to get the wins that ra_serf should make possible (with no loss to users who continue to use ra_neon). >...
