In 1.3.x set optEarlyHttpHeader in EMBPERL_OPTIONS and dbgFlushOutput in
EMBPERL_DEBUG (the second one could also be set inside the page or turned on
and off during the page, using $dbgFlushOutput=1)
2.0 currently doesn't support this, because it works totaly different
internaly. I am currently thinking about how to get this working with 2.0.
This will be part of one of the next releases

P.S. $| has _no_ effect when printing to OUT. (dbgFlushOutput does the same
for Embperls output stream)
