A very good point. I personally would be very glad to avoid that
headache.

Regarding the basic riddle of where to get reliable server and port
identification for redirects if HTTP_HOST is not there, I would
suggest grabbing them from suitable and appropriately named entries in
the Quixote config rather than go through elaborate and probably
unreliable contortions with environment info.
