Many thanks Amos, I've just tried this and it does indeed query sibling
for stale content as we want.

I think there is some logic that will need updating however in
HttpHeader.cc possibly, as when an object becomes stale and the sibling does not have a fresh copy, the origin is queried but the "Age:" and "X-Cache:HIT from" headers are still on the new request, even though it
was a fresh check from the origin. I think these headers need to be
deleted/updated.

Is this a fully new set of headers+object from the server?
 or a revalidation update/refresh from the server?

It's a revalidation, so it sends an "if-modified-since" to the origin which replies with a "304 not modified". At this point it seems the Age: needs recalculating.

Thanks
Michael
