Hrm, this is what I get for logging in to HN from my phone. It’s possible I am confusing this with one of the other exploitable HTTP/1.1 header parser alignment issues.

Maybe this was so widespread that ~everything already handles it because non-malicious stuff breaks if you don’t. In that case, my bad, but I still would like to make a general plea as an implementer for sticking strictly to specified behavior in this sort of protocols.
