I'm testing it with w3af(http://w3af.sourceforge.net) since that's what our
security certifying vendor tests application against.

And it logs -  The URL "http://localhost:8080/app/"; has the following
allowed methods: GET, HEAD, OPTIONS, POST, TRACE. This information was found
in the request with id 19.


Thanks & Regards
Sachin

How are you testing this?

I just tested 7.0.x trunk and see the documented behaviour. Further, there
has been no change in the code that handles this in a number of years.
