The caching design does sometimes do redundant things (like adding to the Age header) which would not strictly be necessary, only because downstream implementations might be broken. The anti-spoofing check is a similar redundant thing. Anyway, I'll take the check out, as most people seem to dislike it. It is redundant anyway. >-Jeff Koen.
