The bug shows up in functional tests, this particular case triggers it:
nosetests test.functional
We have traced it down to this change in WebOb made on Jun 30 2011, shortly after 1.0.8 was released:
https:/
"make sure WSGIHTTPException return the same headers for HEAD and GET requests"
It appears that a contributing factor is that Swift uses exceptions even for successful results, such as webob.exc.HTTPOk. The erroneous content-type and content-length correspond to the textual representation of the HTTPOk "exception".
