WebServer: 301 redirects get stuck

[jekader]

Issue:
301 redirects served by the WebServer get stuck

Reproducer:

1. cretate a directory under the web root # mkdir /var/www/1
2. start WebServer # WebServer
3. open the path curl -v http://127.0.0.1:8000/1 (or open it in the browser)
4. notice the 301 redirect to from /1 to /1/ happening

Actual result:
Connection gets stuck on the client while the server logs it and considers the request as completed.

Expected result:
Connection terminates as it should and the client can start connecting to the redirected path.

Probable cause:
Looking at verbose curl output (-vvv) I see this note:
HTTP 1.0, assume close after body
However, there seems to be no body sent, just a line break. Sending anything after the line break should fix this as it will be considered as the body per RFC-2616

Tried adding some newlines into the error handler but this does not seem to help so the issue is with something else I guess.
