Not sure, as I'm on holiday, but I guess I'll see something on Monday if
they have sent us something. We ain't using PHP at work, but nothing in
out code that would need to be changed to support HTTP/1.1.

Things works in mysterious ways at PayPal, as we are operating with
payment solutions in more than just one country, so we have a bunch of
contacts at PayPal and the Germans may say one thing and the Spaniards
says something completely different.
At least they haven't been as bad as Moneybookers, I had to figure out
what went wrong on their side and tell them what to fix... just for
someone is "big" don't mean they do it right...
