Thanks for the patch!

Before applying this to HTTP, I'd like
(a) a test added to test/httpTests.hs
(b) a reference for why it's ok, e.g. a reference to the RFC and/or
details of what server sends this

I generally batch up HTTP changes and do this kind of thing in a burst
every so often, but if you do it that might speed things up :-)

Cheers,

Ganesh
