That test is described in section 2.2 of the FastCGI spec; see
http://www.fastcgi.com/devkit/doc/fcgi-spec.html#S2.2 .  If the test
is wrong, it's not clear whether it's an error in the spec (most
likely) or a bug in NetBSD.  If you can suggest a more correct test,
we'd like to hear about it, and the authors of the FastCGI spec should
also be informed.
