Aha! Thanks.

I got lucky and figured it out myself by following the error message back
to its source in the code; I needed to add the following to the httpd
conf file:

  MaxHeaderSize 800

Then, everything appears to work okay.

The default is 256, which would seem to be inadequate. (I'm still not sure
*which* header was too long.)

Thanks again,
