Does the client do POST and pass "Expect: continue" ?
nginx does not support "Expect: continue/100 Continue" dialog because
current browsers still do not support it (at least I never see).

So the client askes "Expect: continue", nginx passes the request
to backend, the backend responses "100 Continue". nginx sends it
to the client and goes to keep-alive state.
