Thank you for the clarification, Geoff! I've traced this missing cookie header issue down to a very strange problem: it seems to be a timing issue somehow. If I put a usleep(1) in our code at the start of our perl Response filter, the cookies are no longer missing for each response. For that matter if I use usleep(0) it works, so it seems that delaying the execution of our code by a very tiny amount (enough for a function call to usleep()) seems to make the headers come out correctly, but I have no idea why this would be happening. My first thought is some select() timeout issue somewhere in the Apache stack but that doesn't really make sense.
To be clear, any arbitrary header we add gets lost, not just cookies, but I noticed it with the cookie headers. Anyone have any idea about this timing issue?
