Ok, we could solve this problem by changing

RewiteLocation 2

to

RewiteLocation 0

in the ListenHTTPS and ListenHTTP sections.

we are not sure yet what has changed from 2.6 to 2.7 as it worked
with RewiteLocation 2 in version 2.6.

generally, how should the ListenHTTPS and ListenHTTP sections look like for
a setup, where we redirect HTTP requests to HTTPS requests at the cluster
server level (not by pound itself).
