I guess I didn't make my question clear.  Or actually I don't think I 
even really asked a question.  But The BeginHeader function is what is 
printing the headers, and I was wondering if it would break anything if I 
hacked it so these headers werent being printed..

# from mod_fastcgi.c

void BeginHeader(FastCgiInfo *reqPtr, char *msg)
{
    time_t now;

    ASSERT(BufferLength(reqPtr->reqOutbufPtr) == 0);

    now = time(NULL);
    SendHeader(reqPtr, SERVER_PROTOCOL, " ", msg, NULL);
    SendHeader(reqPtr, "Date: ", HTTPTime(gmtime(&now)), NULL);
    SendHeader(reqPtr, "Server: ", SERVER_VERSION, NULL);
    SendHeader(reqPtr, "MIME-version: 1.0", NULL);

    /*
     * We shouldn't have run out of space in the output buffer.
     */
    ASSERT(BufferFree(reqPtr->reqOutbufPtr) > 0);
}
