Note: This was originally opened as in issue in the uwsgi project (https://github.com/unbit/uwsgi/issues/1677), but mod_proxy_uwsgi has been included as a 1st-party module in httpd, so I'm opening the issue here.

I believe the preferred result is an HTTP 408 Request Timeout response.

This can be easily reproduced using the following curl command, passing a content-length header without any content.

    curl -v 'http://localhost:8080' -X POST -H 'Content-Length: 10'

Return 408 Request Timeout on any timeout error reading HTTP request content from the client.

This patch was tested using the same curl command used to reproduce the original issue.
