Currently there is no sane processing for statements like : ProxyPassReverse https://mysecure.domain/myurl http://mynonsecure.internal/myurl Statements like this should be considered as fixed, full URLs and the relative URL construction (ap_construct_url()) should be omitted in these cases. This issue was located because we have an external SSL accelerator (not maintaned by us :( ) which handles the SSL and forwards to non-secure internal hosts. For the original reverse mappings it would always construct the URL from the server config, which is configured for 'http'. Since the http -> https rewrites do not happen in the SSL accel. (dont ask!) we want to make sure we rewrite to https ourselves. This, together with the fact there is no sane handling anyway this seems like a good idea.
