+><P
+> Pipelined requests are less likely to be mistaken for the request
+ body of the previous request. Note that Privoxy still has no real
+ pipeline support and will either serialize pipelined requests or
+ drop them in which case the client has to resent them.

+ to the one specified in the client's Keep-Alive header.
