GET /foo is a HTTP/0.9 request. GET /foo HTTP/0.9 isn't actually (it's a paradoxon, alright ;). It simply isn't a valid HTTP request, which would demand a 505 response.
Yes, this is an important point. Many webservers seem to exhibit the HTTP 0.9 response behaviors when you don't specify the version.
