The existing code applies a user-settable format string to parsed headers to 
generate
the scan listing.  Part of how this works is to generate a list of headers 
referenced
by the format string so that only those headers are extracted.  However, this 
doesn't
quite work in all cases.  For example, this recent message from Earl:

Note that there are two Return-Path header fields.  If you do a scan -format 
"%{Return-Path}"
you'll get the value of the last one.  Is that what we want?  What is the 
proper formatting
of header fields that occur more than once.  BTW, I haven't checked, but I'd 
guess that this
is a memory leak!
