As far as I am aware, if host is missing, then there is nothing that can
be done, as the network transparent redirection would have hosed the
original IP address anyway. But this would only happen on ancient
clients.

Can anyone confirm this?

I know that HTTP v1.1 insists on the Host header being present, and
throws an error if it's missing, so I suppose a missing host header
would cause the server to barf anyway, so the transparent proxy
shouldn't be an issue.
