How did you make sure of this ?
If not already done, use some browser add-on (Fiddler2 for IE ?) or Wireshark, and really make sure that this is what happens.

Is there a way to prevent apache from modifying my 304 responses?

Which version of Apache are you using ?


Now about the rest :

 Because this
 web-application is integrated into another web application using an
 iFrame, and because most of the users use IE 7.0, I have to set a P3P
 CP="CAO PSA OUR" header in all http responses in order to maintain my
 cookie on the browser.

I am really not competent to judge if the above is correct or not.
I have some doubts though, thinking about how cookies ought to work.
I never heard before of an obligation to set some P3P header to force a browser to keep a cookie.

But anyway, looking at the HTTP RFC 2626, section "10.3.5 304 Not Modified", it seems to say that the set of allowable HTTP headers for a 304 response is quite limited. Might this not be a case where Apache follows the spec, and removes HTTP headers that are not allowed, while IE doesn't follow the specs, and expects such as header ?
