Well, the entire idea is that in mod_perl the remote_ip returns  
127.0.0.1
and the X-Forwarded-For header has the actual real value. The  
PostReadRequestHandler
corrects that so that code doesnt need to know if it is being proxied  
to or not.

So that is a bit beyond what mod_headers does. I take it from the  
question,
this could be an issue?
