Although I got it working by talking to the webhost and getting them to fix their server configuration, I decided to look into that. What I discovered is that getting the script to output redundant headers just caused it to dump some strange things into the output (parts of the headers). It was an interesting thought, though, and something I probably should have thought of checking.
