nginx to nginx proxy header problem.

[Jauder Ho]

I have nginx proxying to nginx+fcgi and it looks like the Vary header is
being set twice. The reason for this config is that I intend to stick a
Varnish instance in between but wanted to make sure this was working
before.

Both instances have pretty much the same config.

As you can see, there is an additional Vary: header for some odd reason.



For completeness, the following are responses for a static file.
