Small style nit: the closing brace should go on the same line as the "else", like so:

				if (proto && ...) {
					...
				} else
					http_status(400, "Bad Request");

Another micronit: the comparison should be !strcmp(c->method, "GET") --- variable first, then constant it is being compared to.

The functional change looks good.

Thanks, Jonathan
