I've seen this issue a couple of times in w3af, AND also in other
softwares [0][1], maybe the answers in those references can help you
fix the issue. Last time I checked, it was because Apache was actually
omitting the status line for *some* HTTP responses. Two options come
to my mind:
* If we identify which requests trigger those invalid responses,
and if the requests are specific enough, we can accept not to send
them?
* Create a special treatment for those invalid, out of protocol, responses
But before doing anything, it would be nice to understand why Apache
sends something like that!
