Thanks! I was using
ns_return 200 appllication/pdf $data
which returns those headers, but the requested url is foo.html, so
even though the pdf viewer opens it (seeing the mime type
application/pdf), it barfs when it sees the .html file extension.
That's why I had to add the filename string to the Disposition header.
Even then the data was corrupt. Somewhere I think line endings are
getting added. Or a trailing newine or something.

You might try ns_write.
First use it to send the correct headers, then the data.
When I download a regular pdf with AOLserver I get these headers:
HTTP/1.0 200 OK
Last-Modified: Wed, 25 Apr 2007 16:04:14 GMT
MIME-Version: 1.0
Date: Wed, 25 Apr 2007 16:18:37 GMT
Server: AOLserver/4.5.0
Content-Type: application/pdf
Content-Length: 46411
Connection: close
(this is an empty line to signal end of headers)
(Then the raw pdf file with null chars)
