That's not how you send a response, I think.  Instead do it more like:

  struct evbuffer *buf = evbuffer_new();
  evbuffer_add_printf(buf, "{\"now\":%d}", (int) time(NULL));
  evhttp_send_reply(req, HTTP_OK, "OK", buf);
  evbuffer_free(buf);

If that doesn't work out for you, see if you can use some debugging
tool to see what exactly firefox is saying to your server, and what
your server is saying in response: that should make most protocol
errors pretty apparent.
