Okay... after much trial and error, I think this is a bug.

I stripped my config down to the bare essentials and these two lines
consistently break caching.

acl public rep_header Cache-Control public
cache allow public

In fact, if I try to use any rep_header acl in the cache directive,
the object is no longer cached. Other acls seem to work (although I
haven't tested all of them) but not rep_header.

Can anyone confirm this bug?
