10.22 says: All Internet-based HTTP/1.1 servers MUST respond with a 400 status code to any HTTP/1.1 request message which lacks a Host header field. This conflicts with 5.1.2: If the absoluteURI form is used, any Host request-header included with the request MUST be ignored. I think 5.1.2 has it right, in which case 10.22 should read: All Internet-based HTTP/1.1 servers MUST respond with a 400 status code to any HTTP/1.1 request message that lacks both an absoluteURI in the request line and a Host header field.
