I used a packet sniffer to examine the HTTP session. As I mentioned, I
don't use apt-proxy; if this behaviour only appears when talking to
apt-proxy, it's probably an issue with that, rather than with apt.

At any rate, I'm happy for MOTU to make the call on this patch, since
apt-proxy is in universe.
