> As discussed on IRC, I'm trying to use an external web API, but every request to the handler produces an infinite loop.
> This is most likely due to not passing on the correct Host header.
> Here's an example:
> _google = {couch_httpd_proxy, handle_proxy_req, <<"http://www.google.com/ig">>}
> Then request with:
> curl -L -X GET http://127.0.0.1:5984/_google/calculator?hl=en&q=100EUR%3D%3FAUD
> Paul Davis did a quick patch: http://friendpaste.com/62T88HOYw8QyaoIJoXEGXr
