The header I need to delete is always different, each time a request is done
it is different and alway with this weird patter  \s+\w+. (4 whitespaces
followed by 8 random characters)

Some real examples, it's cut to 1 whitespace character, but there're 4:

"     XkIOPalY"
"    peYhKOlx"
"    KpyTKolq"

So using headers-more-nginx-module wildcard character, *, at the end of the
header name does not help here. Anyway, thank you and if you have any other
suggestion it's more than welcome.
