Update - I just found an old post from 2005 in the mailing list archive
which looks outlines a way to do this by modifying http.c :  would this
still be the recommended way to add a custom header ?

just add a line to http.c such as:


          /* put additional client IP header */
          BIO_printf(be,"X-Forwarded-For: %s\r\n", inet_ntoa(from_host));
+        BIO_printf(be,"REAL_REMOTE_ADDR: %s\r\n", inet_ntoa(from_host));

To my knowledge, yes, a custom patch is still required. It probably wouldn't be too hard to add a config option for this particular case. Give it a try and talk to Robert and see if there's any interest in having it merged.
