That isn't as detailed as I thought it was, but the answer is that the SP has to compute the right handler for a resource when it has to derive the ACS to use in a request for the resource. All web applications are expected to compute scheme, host, and port for a request from the web server's API, and on Apache that's how it works. IIS, at least in its original API, has no such support, and so the SP has to rely on its own configuration file for the information.
