Shouldn't you check p->options.http_version and make sure it's >= 1.1
before sending the Host header?

Cuurently I can not imagine a server/proxy, that does not understand the
Host header?
see also http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec19.html#sec19.6.1.1
But to be on the safe side we can make this check. I would check for
http_version != "1.0". Currently I'm not able to send a revised patch,
if desired I can make this until weekend.
Thanks for your attention!
Frank
