In my initial post there's already a real-life example snapshot from a single TCP session between the Varnish server and a backend, illustrating the issue. As for a Varnishlog; the backend requests are not logged, so those do not show up in the log. I'll prepare an integrated backend/frontend varnishlog, to post here, where at least the frontend requests and responses will be visible. And I'll see if I can post the tcpdump corresponding to that varnishlog too. The dumps are huge, even on short time spans, so they tend to take a while to be processed.
