Figured it out, but for anyone else, turns out the header values MUST
be character strings. I had (incorrectly) assumed CouchDB would
convert that for me...

list(head, req) {
  start({
      headers: {
//          "X-NRows": head.total_rows
          "X-NRows": "" + head.total_rows    // Convert to string
      }
  });

  provides("json") {
      // generate time consuming output
  }
  provides("xml") {
      // generate time consuming output
  }
}
