--- Comment #18 from Eric Covener <cove...@gmail.com> ---
(In reply to Allan Schrum from comment #17)
> You arguments indicate that you believe this should never have worked. Fine,
> I accept that. However, it did work for a very long time and it is now
> broken. Perhaps this worked because previously the code treated the output
> from CGI as a transfer hop so Transfer-Encoding worked as Apache read the
> output from the CGI process. It was mentioned that the code change that
> "broke" this now clears the transfer encoding variable arbitrarily. Perhaps
> it should only be cleared if Content-Length is provided?
>
> So it seems like the options are:
>
> 1. Go back to the previous behavior for mod_deflate so that the chunked
> output from the CGI script is properly read as part of the activities of
> mod_deflate.
> 1.a. This might need to be more generic and apply to anything reading the
> output of the CGI process, not simply mod_deflate.
> 1.b. Basically, revert the code change.
> 2. Declare victory as Apache httpd is now finally following the standard(s)
> 3. Disable mod_deflate
> 4. Convert our CGI processes to be NPH
#1 isn't likely when we could just add or extend an opt-out as described in
Comment #7
> Maybe we could allow extend the "ap_trust_cgilike_cl" interpretation to also
> allow T-E.
