You are mixing two different purge mechanisms.  I think what you want
is listed in the EXAMPLES section in the vcl(7) manual page.

Also, the PURGE request you showed did not include a Host: header at
all, so your host normalization code never kicked in, and you tried to
purge a different document from the one you later requested.
