BTW, I'd also be a bit suspect on nginx behaviour if it was even
passing through more than Conent-Length. If you were using Apache it
would outright refuse to pass on more content than that specified by
the Content-Length as it trusts that value as being the actual content
length. It has to do that for HTTP/1.1 pipelining to work properly.
