Oh, this only happens with trunk, but not with e.g 5.3.5. But just see 
the difference:

test.php
| <?php
| header('Content-Language: ');
| ?>

That's what PHP 5.3.5 is sending to the server:
| X-Powered-By: PHP/5.3.5
| Content-Language:
| Content-type: text/html

And that's what PHP trunk is sending to the server:
| X-Powered-By: PHP/5.3.99-dev
| Content-Language
| Content-type: text/html

see the missing ":" after the header name.

if I'm using this script:
test.php
| <?php
| header('Content-Language:');
| ?>

the output is correct:
| X-Powered-By: PHP/5.3.99-dev
| Content-Language:
| Content-type: text/html
