Well, Apache 2.2 can, see
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod...ml#rewritecond
Other things you should be aware of:
....
4. %{HTTP:header}, where header can be any HTTP MIME-header name, can always
be used to obtain the value of a header sent in the HTTP request.
Example: %{HTTP:Proxy-Connection} is the value of the HTTP header
``Proxy-Connection:''.
....
I wasn't aware that this is a feature only of 2.2+.
