Hi,
I noticed this a while back and i have done some testing on every version of pike and roxen cvs that i have installed.
It might also be due to something in mozilla, more on that below. I restested today due to this cvs entry:

correct misbehaviour on small responses to actually finish the
request (how did it ever work?)
And it looks like it behaves better, i used to get 5-6 missing images now i get 1-2.
Anyways to recreate: Install roxen, mozilla. Enable http 1.1, keep alive and pipelining. Enter the page, hold shift and hit reload.
You get some stalled images. These are reported as ? connections in roxens administration interface (in roxen 4.0.x)....
I just thought i'd make this official, feel free to mail me with questions etc.
