Doh.  The answer was in the function comment:

* This function COM_passes a meta tag to COM_refresh after a form is sent. This is * necessary because for some reason Nutscrape and PHP4 don't play well with
* the header() function COM_100% of the time.

I need to ask about the reasoning behind this:

function COM_refresh( $url )
{
return "<html><head><meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0; URL=$url\"></head></html>\n";
}

This is broken in my site for reasons I don't yet understand. One possible fix is to use the HTTP Location: header, but that brings up the issue of why you guys didn't do that in the first place. My guess is that the Location: header led to bugs that I don't know about... Yes?
