What are those defaults?.

My google-foo is very low today, and I only arrived at the squid
FAQ[1], which says "We must note that access controls based on this
header are extremely weak and simple to fake. Anyone may hand-enter a
request with any IP address whatsoever[...]".

And the mod_proxy page dind't help either, it just says: "Be careful
when using these headers on the origin server, since they will contain
more than one (comma-separated) value if the original request already
contained one of these headers."
