It may be a good idea to check the httpd-dev archives to see if the issue of HEAD has been discussed in the past.

Here's a relevant bit of info from the httpd-dev archives:


* All handlers should always send content down even if r->header_only
  is set.  If not, it means that the HEAD requests don't generate the
  same headers as a GET which is wrong.
