but that's just wrong :)
Set-Cookie is a response header, so it will be set in $r->headers_out when
the server decides to send a cookie to the client. Cookie is a request
header, so you glean it from $r->headers_in if the client has one to give
you. you'll never see Set-Cookie in $r->headers_in unless someone has made
a grave mistake.
you can see the gory details in the rfc
