Comment (by nacin):

 > The issue is ultimately caused by (shared-)hosting companies which - for
 security reasons - set the $_SERVER['SERVER_SOFTWARE'] variable to MS IIS
 when in reality the server runs on a Linux variant.

 Can we have an example host that does this? That is insane, though I've
 seen worse.
