Comment (by phk):

 The reason I did it in the C-code originally was because we did not have
 the necessary VCL header-editing facilities.

 Today you can actually say:

 {{{
         if (bereq.http.x-forwarded-for) {
                 set bereq.http.X-forwarded-for =
                     bereq.http.X-forwarded-for ", "
                     regsub(client.ip, ":.*", "");
         } else {
                 set bereq.http.X-forwarded-for =
                     regsub(client.ip, ":.*", "");
         }
 }}}

 I'm not sure I see the benefit of pushing this to the default VCL given
 that the quite sensible default (moduls append bug) can be overridden
 already.
