State-Changed-Why:
Grumble.  This is caused by a silly interaction between
the client sending an non-standard header and the "server"
being hidden behind a proxy (ie. at Novell's end) that incorrectly tries to
listen to it.  This means that the server never closes
the connection, so the Apache proxy never finishes transmitting.

I'll put a workaround together when I get a chance.  Saying
exactly who is to blame is difficult because it is non-standard
headers causing the problem, but Apache can avoid the
problem by changing the non-standard header.
