As a followup to below, what directives would be needed to accomplish this
"proxy" or "tunnel" or whatever i should call it?  Incidentally, if it
matters, the client here is not a browser - it's just a c-program that
writes raw http-headered request messages directly.  An illustrative example
would be great!

No special compile flags are necessary in 1.3.22+ and mod_ssl 2.8
