Raymond Hettinger added the comment:

Putting it another way:   To an origin server, 'Accept: */*' means it can 
return anything it wants.  To a proxy server, the absence of an accept header 
means in can return anything it has cached (possibly different from what the 
origin server would have returned).  In contract, to a proxy server, 'Accept: 
*/*' means return exactly what the origin server would have returned with the 
same headers.
