the mismatch was the problem - the user-agent alone was acceptable
- i had explained it better on a preceding message:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnuzilla/2021-05/msg00002.html
here is a test page:
<html><body><script type="text/javascript">
document.write("codeName=" + navigator.appCodeName + "<br />");
document.write("appName=" + navigator.appName + "<br />");
document.write("appVersion=" + navigator.appVersion + "<br />");
document.write("oscpu=" + navigator.oscpu + "<br />");
document.write("platform=" + navigator.platform + "<br />");
document.write("product=" + navigator.product + "<br />");
document.write("buildID=" + navigator.buildID + "<br />");
document.write("userAgent=" + navigator.userAgent + "<br />");
</script><body><html>
icecat:
codeName=Mozilla
appName=Netscape
appVersion=78.0
oscpu=Windows NT 6.1
platform=Win32
product=Gecko
buildID=Gecko/20100101
userAgent=Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:78.0) Gecko/20100101 IceCat/78.0
notice that 'userAgent' has "Linux x86_64" while 'oscpu' and 'platform' declare
"Windows"
- that is probably why cloudflare rejects the clients as insane
