In HTTP/1.1, connections are assumed to be persistent unless declared otherwise.

PS: Squid "supports HTTP/1.0 persistent connections", from which the HTTP/1.1
style keepalives derive-- and quick testing suggests these persistent
connections work with either HTTP/1.0 or 1.1 specified in the request.

Grr. I hate adding workarounds to improve compatibility with hopelessly
antique code (seriously, why doesn't squid support http/1.1 yet?), but I
guess I'll make phttpget emit a completely bogus "Connection: Keep-Alive"
header to go along with its HTTP/1.1 requests.
