The issue is the mismatch between SRU and SRW.

In SRW:
   <extraRequestData>
     <foo:accept xmlns:foo="info:srw/1/extensions/accept">any</foo:accept>
   </extraRequestData>
or
     <foo:acceptAny xmlns:foo="info:srw/1/extensions/acceptAny"/>

vs SRU:
   ...&x-info-1-accept=any


Here are some other values that could be useful for it:

any            Accept any extraData anywhere
anyResponse    Accept any extraResponseData
anyRecord      Accept any extraRecordData
anyTerm        Accept any extraTermData
