This solution will work but there is a better one: create the header later (after the debug, at the end of index_ts.php). It will allow content-length header for any kind of pages, so this will not be necessary:

==========
+            !$this->isEXTincScript() &&
+            !$this->beUserLogin  &&
+            !$this->TYPO3_CONF_VARS['FE']['debug'] &&
+            !$this->config['config']['debug'] &&
+            !$this->doWorkspacePreview() 
==========

Having content-length speeds up page loading in many browsers.
