[Vortex] Are content-types and transfer-encodings supposed to work?

To answer my own question: I found the problem in  
vortex_frame_get_next, which doesn't parse MIME headers properly at  
all. It's hardcoded to look for only a single optional "Content-Type"  
header; if there are headers past that, or if the first header isn't  
"Content-Type", it doesn't notice and screws up the parsing of the  
remainder of the frame.

I'm working on adding a real parser to it. It'll read the "Content- 
Transfer-Encoding" header too, and will properly skip & ignore any  
headers it doesn't understand. Stay tuned...
