strchr may return NULL if colon is not found. It seems clearer to
assert explicitly that we don't expect it here, than dereference 1 in
the next line.

I'm not sure if this is actually much clearer because it doesn't say why
we don't expect NULL here. If you don't look at the context, it almost
looks like an assert() where proper error handling is needed. If you do,
then the original line is clear enough.

My first thought was that maybe what we want is a comment, but we
actually already know where the colon is. So how about this instead:

    char *p = header + strlen(accept_ranges);

Oh, right. That's better.
