Looks like everything is working fine with v3. Thanks a lot! :)

Well, we are not using mod_proxy_http on his own, but only in pair with
mod_proxy_balancer, so passing 100-continue through seems a bit weird for me,
as apache always did his own 100-continue check, choosing another backend in
case of failure.
So from my perspective turning the "Proxy100Continue off" in our case is pretty
much OK.

I'd prefer not to use chunked requests/responses at all. It's harder to
read/debug (using wireshark, etc.), and we had some issues a few years earlier
when the client was sending a plain request over the socket, regexp-parsing the
answer, therefore expecting a well-known formatted response with content-length
set, and suddenly the response to the client went from "Content-Length: xxx" to
chunks.
When we are talking about the browsers as the clients, it might be
better/faster/etc., as well as those trendy things like HTTP/2, but when
handling M2M requests, the only thing they can give us - is a headache :)
