I should clarify a bit Stephan -- it was not specifically a doubled
Access-Control-Allow-Origin header that destroyed my week but rather was a
doubled Content-Length header. I was in the same boat as you though. If I
explicitly added it it was doubled, and if not it wasn't correct (on that
server config anyways -- which I did not have good control over).

But doubled headers in general are now considered a security risk
so current Firefox and chrome treat them harshly. I did find a blackhat
paper describing an exploit using doubled Access-Control-Allow-Origin --
but again with the eye pain.

Good luck :)
