 *
 * Please refer to RFC2068 or RFC2616 for informations about HTTP protocol, and
 * RFC2965 for informations about cookies usage. More generally, the IETF HTTP
 * Working Group's web site should be consulted for protocol related changes :
 *
 *     http://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/http/
 *
 * Pending bugs (may be not fixed because never reproduced) :
 *   - solaris only : sometimes, an HTTP proxy with only a dispatch address causes
 *     the proxy to terminate (no core) if the client breaks the connection during
 *     the response. Seen on 1.1.8pre4, but never reproduced. May not be related to
 *     the snprintf() bug since requests were simple (GET / HTTP/1.0), but may be
 *     related to missing setsid() (fixed in 1.1.15)
 *   - a proxy with an invalid config will prevent the startup even if disabled.
 *
 * ChangeLog has moved to the CHANGELOG file.
 *
 * TODO:
 *   - handle properly intermediate incomplete server headers. Done ?
 *   - handle hot-reconfiguration
 *   - fix client/server state transition when server is in connect or headers state
 *     and client suddenly disconnects. The server *should* switch to SHUT_WR, but
 *     still handle HTTP headers.
 *   - remove MAX_NEWHDR
 *   - cut this huge file into several ones
