By default nginx passes all headers to backend.  The only 
modification it does are:

- Host: <name of upstream>
- Connection: close

See http://wiki.codemongers.com/NginxHttpProxyModule#proxy_set_header.

Looks like you did something wrong either in your nginx config or 
in your code.  Try tcpdump to see what really happens on the wire.
