As a non-default mode of operation the aproach taken is likely 
good enough (not looked into details), but the patch won't work 
with current nginx versions - at least it needs (likely major) 
adjustments to cope with changes introduced during work on chunked 
request body support as available in nginx 1.3.9+.
