Marc Slemko just reminded me that, in addition to the date fields
I already mentioned, the Apache proxy will remove the Connection header
field and any fields listed in its value, change the response
HTTP-version to HTTP/1.0 (since the proxy is not yet HTTP/1.1 compliant),
remove leading spaces in any header field value
(eg. "Foobar: this" --> "Foobar: this"), and change continuation lines
into a single line. AFAIK, none of that should affect Digest.
