@Valentin
I am not seeking a solution to the 414 problem, I know how to address the
issue
Thanks anyway

@Francis
The browser output has just be made to illustrate the wrong answer.

The problem triggered using a Python script which checked against the
'status' field of a HTTP answer to decide on its actions.
It crashed several times at random occurences with a BadStatusLine
exception.
The exception message was something like '<html>\n\n\n\n200'.

I do not know the implementation details, although I suspect an answer code
should be an answer code.
I didn't get 414, I get something which made my script crash.

That's why I guess that's a bug
