Use Shibboleth environments variables in mod_proxy_http

Hi,

We are planning to switch from "mod_jk" to "mod_proxy_http" and found that
Shibboleth environment variables are not set even when we turned on
"ShibUseEnvironment On" in "mod_proxy_http"

While testing, the Shibboleth-SP Environment attributes as well as
REMOTE_USER are NOT available to the Tomcat-hosted J2ee application. In
short, request.getRemoteUser() returns NULL and
request.getAttribute("shibattr-email") returns NULL too. 

Please note that the values for the environment variables are coming fine
with request attributes, if the "mod_jk" settings were used.

Is that any limitation in using Shibboleth environment variables with
"mod_proxy_http"
