This "fix" has nothing to do with the ZServer issue - all we do in  
CMF is prevent setting content-length in the CMF code, ZServer will  
still add the zero-length header. This mirrors the behavior OFS.Image  
has now and is therefore 100% safe.

The ZServer issue itself will be dealt with on a different time line.

I agree. This is a matter of concerted planning instead of the  
current "we think we have something to release, please make a CMF  
release for us".
