This is operator delete refusing to delete a const pointer - I don't
know the standard well enough to comment if this is 'good behaviour' or
not. We can solve it two ways: remove my deleteSelf hack (there is a
test case that shows it shouldn't be needed - and the standard says it's
not needed). Or we can const_cast the pointers before deleting. I'd like
to get rid of the deleteSelf hack...

try changing the "enum http_hdr_type type" at the top of the function to
"http_hdr_type type".

try adding an explicit cast to (__cdecl *)(void *) on the NULL.
