  How about changing the following line 996 in /lib/python/zope/publisher/http.py ( as described in http://www.zope.org/Collectors/Zope/2280 )

      header_present = 'HTTP_ACCEPT_CHARSET' in self.request 
  to 

      header_present = 'HTTP_ACCEPT_CHARSET' in self.request.keys() 

I think this is a bug. After doing that change, IE6 and IE7 behaved consistently.
