SSL Forwarding Stops Transparent PNG's From Rendering In IE6

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Create a transparent PNG using the -trans.png naming convention.
2. Reference the PNG in CSS via "background-image".
3. Create a page that includes IE8.js, the CSS from step 2 and an HTML
element using the CSS class created in step 2.
4. Run the code and all is as expected.
5. In tomcat WEB-XML, add SSL forwarding:

    <security-constraint>
        <web-resource-collection>
            <web-resource-name>Automatic SSL Forwarding</web-resource-name>
            <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
        </web-resource-collection>
        <user-data-constraint>
            <transport-guarantee>CONFIDENTIAL</transport-guarantee>
        </user-data-constraint>
    </security-constraint>
6. Restart tomcat and the transparent PNG does not render.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The transparent PNG should be rendered, but nothing is displayed.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
IE8.js = version 2.0 (beta2) 
OS = Windows XP Pro
Web = Tomcat 5.5
Browser: IE6 (Version: 6.0.2900.5512.xpsp_sp3_gdr.090804-1435)

Please provide any additional information below.

Can you provide a simple test page to illustrate the problem? I don't have 
Tomcat 
installed.
