Comment:

 Phk, I fully understand your reasons. But I don't understand why you fear
 Varnish would be butchered if one assertion in VRT_SetHdr was removed.

 I was not asking at all to parse broken request lines in varnish, RFC2616
 is very clear about this:

 {{{
 Request-Line   = Method SP Request-URI SP HTTP-Version CRLF
 }}}

 I am not at all questioning this, nor the current Varnish Request Line
 parsing.

 All I am asking for is the necessary tool to work around this broken
 client in a VCL by removing one assertion.

 Thanks, Nils
