Description:
------------
the header location doesn't conform to RFC.

The response header must finish with at least a space character.

Reproduce code:
---------------
header("Location: http://url/);

Expected result:
----------------
According to RFC2616 ?6.1 the response message must consist in "HTTP-Version SP Status-Code SP Reason-Phrase CRLF".
(ie HTTP/1.1 302 Found).

Actual result:
--------------
Currently, php send "HTTP/1.1 302" with even no space at the end of the response

This is odd the problem occurs with the dotdeb packages on sarge but not with debian's official packages on etch..

I think it's because php_cgi return "Status: 302" with no explanation

What SAPI are you using?

I use php in cgi mode. The problem seems to come from apache 2.0(.54) not from php.

I'v made an other test using a simple shell script

#! /bin/sh
echo Status: 302
echo

With apache 2.2 it returns HTTP/1.1 302 Found
but with apache 2.0 it returns HTTP/1.1 302

If I change the script to

#! /bin/sh
echo Status: 302
echo

It returns HTTP/1.1 302 Found i both cases

Oups

the last part of the message must read:

If I change the script to

#! /bin/sh
echo Status: 302 Found
echo

It returns HTTP/1.1 302 Found i both cases
