Proxy server cuts off begining of buffer when specific header is used.

• Additional Comments From Jon.Strabala@QuantumSI.com 2002-07-11 16:50 ------- I have supplied a patch for correcting this bug, basically if a non-HTTP response is received 1.3.26 will drop the 1st line even though it is not a header, refer to my attachement for a non-certified quick fix.

The basic fix was to write a 'peek' function to look at a line without consuming the
input buffer when checking for a true HTTP header response to a proxied request.

I felt it was important to post it due
to the inability to use 1.3.24 which
doesn't have this bug - BUT has a nasty
security flaw i.e. the CERT chunk bug.
