WordPress $is_nginx (et sim.) incompatible with mod_security

  • Dear all,
    since my admin has enabled mod_security with SecServerSignature in order to overwrite the “Server:” field in http responses with a fake value, as a side effect the variables $is_nginx, $is_apache, $is_IIS etc. in wordpress are set to a wrong value.
    (they actually read $_SERVER[‘SERVER_SOFTWARE’] in order to discover server type)

    So,
    are there other ways within wordpress for identifying the right web server?

    Kind Regards,
