More likely: -- the content for the front page is served by Arc, whereas the static media is served from a separate Apache instance.

Arc's current HTTP server libary (src.arc) only supports HTTP/1.0.

Well, HTTP doesn't really have versions other than as a shorthand for header defaults. For example, Connection: close handles implementations that assume HTTP 1.1, iirc.

An Expires header would help a lot for arc-generated pages served in response to requests that aren't associated with a logged in user.
