Not sure, as I'm on holiday, but I guess I'll see something on Monday if 
they have sent us something. We ain't using PHP at work, but nothing in 
out code that would need to be changed to support HTTP/1.1.

Things works in mysterious ways at PayPal, as we are operating with 
payment solutions in more than just one country, so we have a bunch of 
contacts at PayPal and the Germans may say one thing and the Spaniards 
says something completely different.

At least they haven't been as bad as Moneybookers, I had to figure out 
what went wrong on their side and tell them what to fix... just for 
someone is "big" don't mean they do it right...
