A few question as we're planning to do something similar in the not to distant future.

1. Are Apache and 4D/Active4D running on the same box.?

In our current configuration yes. We did start out with them on different boxes, but since I had the file upload already running in Apache, we decided the put them on one box.

2. I'm assuming Apache has ssl enabled?

Yes

3. I'm not clear whether 4D (or 4D Client) has ssl enabled? If not, are there any gotchas proxying from a secured host to a non-secured host?

4D Client does not have SSL enabled. We have not seen any problems. The one thing I have not done yet is to firewall the high port number and restrict them to local access only - that would be the one gotcha if that got out in the public (allows non secure access if you know the port number). Running on the same box, you could even firewall it to everything since the proxy pass is to 127.0.0.1:80xx.

4. Do you have signed SSL certs for each of the virtual hosts on your Apache Web server?

We have a domain(wildcard) certificate, so *.aidt.edu is our only certificate. We needed 3 or 4 certificates and the wildcard was not that much more. I assume you can put separate certificates for each virtual host.
