How about using a utility which would allow you to use http to access your
dtml method and then examine the headers (ie. Curl, wget, etc) to see if
they are being set correctly.  That would let you know if:

1) they are being set correctly and are then just ignored by your client, or

2) they are not being set, so either something in zope or something in front
of zope (ie. if you are running apache or something similar) is messing with
the headers
