Hi. I have a mongrel+apache2.2 config running.  
It happens that one of our partners request a response body containing  
ONLY one char. It happens that they reported me that sometimes (!) my  
response was going like this:  
================================ \<- this line is to separate this text  
HTTP/1.1 200 OK  
Date: Sat, 03 Nov 2007 23:12:16 GMT  
Server: Mongrel 1.0.1  
Status: 200 OK  
Cache-Control: no-cache  
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1  
Content-Length: 1  
Vary: Accept-Encoding  
Connection: close

0  
================================ \<- this line is to separate this text  
Although the content-length is set to 1, mongrel (or apache) inserted  
double line breaks before the original response (as set on rails -\> 0)

Can anyone help?  
Thanks in advance
