Nginx 1.x and Vary header HTTP

Hi,
I’m reading this web page:
http://www.notthewizard.com/2012/02/27/nginx-reverse-proxy-can-cause-ie-to-fail/

that leads to this statement (Module ngx_http_proxy_module):
“nginx does not handle “Vary” headers when caching.”

I found this bug tracker page:
http://trac.nginx.org/nginx/ticket/118

that seems related to the same topic.

Are there news about supporting / honoring the Vary header using nginx
purely as a reverse proxy in front of IIS / Tomcat / Apache webservers?

I’m using nginx 1.2.6 on a freebsd 9.1 amd64 box.

Thanks in advance,
d.
