There's some discussion in b66c77a64e (http: match headers
case-insensitively when redacting, 2021-09-22) about testing with
HTTP/2. Which ironically is basically this exact same bug in a different
form. ;)

The short answer is that it's do-able, but probably there are some
headaches to make it work portably.

I agree with you that trying various curl versions isn't worth doing. If
enough people/platforms run Git's suite, one of them will eventually
see the problem.
