The trouble is that the patch breaks the proxy as is - because it does not follow the HTTP/1.0 spec at all apart from sending an HTTP/1.0 instead of HTTP/1.1.

In addition, we should not be breaking proxy to fix other broken 3rd party software. The patch is only temporarily needed anyway, because the bug in Weblogic will be fixed soon, and the need for the patch will fall away. This kind of patch should be added to the contributed patches for v2.0 so that it is available should a workaround be necessary.

Regards,
Graham
