Apache's implementation problems go beyond the protocol specs. The sample attack codes includes invalid ranges in the request (E.g start at 5, end at 0). So the protocol specs aren't the only thing to blame. Also, the fact that apache is the only server to be crippled by this issue is a strong data point against putting all blame on the protocol.
