Actually, you have the servers running on the different services confused.

The homepages are using (a modified version of) the tiny/turbo/throttling
httpd server, the Demon pages use Apache, and the cache is using Squid.

    $ lynx -source -head http://www.alfie.demon.co.uk/ | grep "^Server:"
    Server: thttpd/1.00.dis++

    $ lynx -source -head http://www.demon.net/ | grep "^Server:"
    Server: Apache/0.8.14

    $ lynx -source -head http://www.demon.co.uk/ | grep "^Server:"
    Server: Apache/0.8.14

    $ lynx -source -head http://www-cache.demon.co.uk:8080/ | grep "^Server:"
    Server: jrg/1.1
    [Well, we all know the cache is using Squid, as the error messages tell
    us so.  This must just be for the redirect to the proxy information]

Apache does understand 0.9 requests (at least Apache/1.0.5 does).  You are
right that the homepages and the cache do not understand 0.9 requests.
(Is there software that is proxy aware, but uses 0.9 requests?).
