Summary: httplib: multiple Set-Cookie headers
Initial Comment:
httplib does not support multiple headers of the same
name, because the headers are stored in a dictionary.
This causes a problem because an HTTP response can
contain multiple "Set-Cookie".
It is stated in RFC2109 - HTTP State Management
Mechanism that "An origin server may include multiple
Set-Cookie headers in a response. "
With the current python implementation, only the
last "Set-Cookie" header is included in the headers
dictionary, effectively meaning that the other cookies
were lost.
