Description

I tested latest git rev (598cdd0) and it always returns "HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized" without WWW-Authenticate header.

Config:

#### auth module
auth.backend               = "plain" 
auth.backend.plain.userfile = "/etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.user" 

auth.require = ( "/protected/" =>
    ( "method" => "basic",
      "realm" => "Password protected area",
      "require" => "user=puser" 
    )
)

Thanks for testing HEAD.

The issue is due to

    reset response headers, write_queue for error docs

I'll prepare a fix.
