Looking at the headers alist, it seems the client sent Connection: Keep-alive.    I am 
guessing that you would get the same terminal output ("... kept alive ...") for 
any kind of HTTP request where the client sends such a header, regardless of whether you 
are using http-server-form-posts or not.
