runrev adds http header for free?

Could it be that the browser is expecting 2 crlfs after the header,  
while 2 lfs are all that's being written?

Even if the perl script is producing crlfs, Rev tends to convert  
crlfs to lfs unless you specifically prevent it.

Perhaps it would help if you inserted the line:

replace lf with crlf in buffer

before writing it out to the socket.

I'm fairly sure that Rev would not be adding spurious headers - I  
think it's only  libUrl that would have that capability, and I'm sure  
it's better behaved than that, even if it's installed in your cgi setup.

Best,

Mark
