Hehe that's a fun way to help spot future regressions :-) You should have specified the exact version you tested with. That said, chunked encoding was initially implemented with trailers support in both directions. That's typically the sort of thing you don't want to try to introduce later as it breaks the state machine and becomes much harder to do later than to do initially. So I was pretty sure it used to work, though I must confess I don't test them often :-) Cheers, Willy
