(I honestly believe this is a Perl related question. Please be kind on me if I'm wrong O:^)).

This simple server:

use warnings;
use strict;
use SOAP::Transport::HTTP;

SOAP::Transport::HTTP::CGI
    ->dispatch_to ('/home/hue/lang/perl/modules', 'HelloWorld')
    ->handle;

[download]

does not return a proper HTTP status line (ie, the "HTTP/1.1 200 OK" one). Instead, it returns "Status: 200 OK", which is making the client I'm using fail. Upon investigation, I found a conditional on line 373 of SOAP/Transport/HTTP.pm, the code decides to send "Status:" because I'm not running IIS, due to what seems to be a bug in IIS concerning non-parsed-headers.

I see no way of making SOAP::Lite send a standard status line as specified in RFC 2616 (section 6.1) so I must assume I don't know something and that "Status:" line is in some way "right". So, what am I missing? Is my client buggy for not accepting "Status:"?
