I think sed only works on lines. A zero-byte file has no lines, so that could be the problem.

http::proxy::bodyfilter::lines
HTTP::Proxy::BodyFilter::lines(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation HTTP::Proxy::BodyFilter::lines(3pm)
NAME
HTTP::Proxy::BodyFilter::lines - A filter that outputs only complete lines
SYNOPSIS
use HTTP::Proxy::BodyFilter::lines;
use MyFilter; # this filter only works on complete lines
my $filter = MyFilter->new();
# stack both filters so that they'll handle text/* responses
$proxy->push_filter(
mime => 'text/*',
response => HTTP::Proxy::BodyFilter::lines->new,
response => $filter
);
# I want my lines to end with '!'
# This is equivalent to $/ = '!' in a normal Perl program
my $lines = HTTP::Proxy::BodyFilter::lines->new('!');
DESCRIPTION
The HTTP::Proxy::BodyFilter::lines filter makes sure that the next filter in the filter chain will only receive complete lines. The
"chunks" of data received by the following filters with either end with "
" or will be the last piece of data for the current HTTP message
body.
You can change the idea the filter has of what is a line by passing to its constructor the string it should understand as line ending. "
"
is the default value.
my $filter = HTTP::Proxy::BodyFilter::lines->new( $sep );
This is similar to modifying $/ in a Perl program. In fact, this filter has a behaviour so similar to modifying $/ that it also knows about
"paragraph mode" and "record mode".
Note that the "slurp" mode is not supported. Please use HTTP::Proxy::BodyFilter::complete to enable the generic store and forward filter
mechanism.
METHODS
This filter defines the following methods, which are automatically called:
init()
Initialise the filter with the EOL information.
filter()
Keeps unfinished lines for later.
will_modify()
This method returns a false value, thus indicating to the system that it will not modify data passing through.
