I can't find all the history, but some time ago proxypassmatch never
tried to find a matching worker
https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=62167

Later, we must have gotten some logic added but you still have to
opt-in, I think it is likely
http://home.apache.org/~ylavic/patches/httpd-2.4.x-ap_proxy_define_match_worker.patch
or adjacent

Not sure if it helps
