The fix does make sense, but I think that this means that the behavior of the
Request headers is different to that of the Response headers w.r.t.
sub-requests.

Core Apache makes a copy of the outgoing headers when calling a sub-request --
so any changes that mod_headers make are discarded at the end of the subrequest
and don't effect the rest of the processing.

Request headers are passed to a sub-request by reference, so a change by
mod_headers in a sub-request persists into the rest of the processing.

If this is by design then fine, but I think that needs to be documented.  I
tend to think that making a copy of the request headers as is done for the
response headers is more consistent.


Thanks

Jake Scott
