+<p>For circumstances where you have a application server which doesn't implement
+keepalives or HTTP/1.1 properly, there are 2 environment variables which when
+set send a HTTP/1.0 with no keepalive. These are set via the  <directive
+module="mod_env">SetEnv</directive> directive.</p>
+<p>These are the 'force-proxy-request-1.0' and 'proxy-nokeepalive' notes.</p>

+ProxyPass http://buggyappserver:7001/foo/<br />
+SetEnv force-proxy-request-1.0 1<br />
+SetEnv proxy-nokeepalive 1<br />
