Pass headers from FastCGI backend to client while X-Accel-Redirect

Hi, 

I'm having some trouble with FastCGI backend sending custom headers to client while using X-Accel-Redirect. My backend PHP does something like this: 


header( "custom-header: some-value" );     
header( "X-Accel-Redirect: " . $cache_file);


If I don't use X-Accel-Redirect everything is fine (i.e. I can see the custom-header from client side). But Nginx seems to strip all headers set by my PHP backend if X-Accel-Redirect is used. Any idea why and how I can add it back? Thanks very much!
