Peter,

A version that makes the parts still in use private is already done:
http://codereview.qt-project.org/#change,11741

As for removing them entirely yes, it would require changes in the HTTP socket 
engine and QAuthenticator. But given that both of them use QHttpResponseHeader 
I see no reason to duplicate the code in both classes, perphaps it would be 
preferable to simply strip the not used functionality from the existing 
QHttpResponseHeader class?

The qhttpheader_p.h in my patch has two classes QHttpHeader and 
QHttpResponseHeader, I could work on merging and simpĺyfing both of them, what 
do you guys think?
