All other requests pass. This happens with httpd 2.4.23 and mod_perl 2.0.9 or 2.0.10.

We're seeing these failures again in the course of testing RCs for mod_perl 2.0.11. One thing I've noticed is that these tests pass (genuinely pass, not just skipped!) if LWP is not present, which can be faked by setting APACHE_TEST_PRETEND_NO_LWP=1 in the environment.
