 Replying to [comment:3 josephscott]:
 > @maxcutler - I don't think we should hard code HTTP 1.1 as the response.
 Will HTTP 1.0 clients freak out if we do that?

 Valid question. I was just following examples of similar behavior
 elsewhere in core.

 * /wp-comments-post.php at L10
 * /wp-includes/class-wp-atom-server.php (multiple)

 Maybe there should be a core API for this that is smarter, like found in
 load.php at L163-168?
