No.  I just started my app with front end listening on port 85 and the
back end on 10085 -- I have a startup script that add 10,000 to the port
number for the back-end by default. ;)


moseley at bumby:~$ sudo netstat -ltp | grep '85 '
tcp        0      0 localhost:10085         *:*      LISTEN     30585/apache2
tcp        0      0 *:85                    *:*      LISTEN     30577/apache2

Then in my app auto() I added:

    warn join "\n",
        "request = " . $c->req->uri,
        $c->request->header( 'X-Forwarded-Host' ),
        $c->uri_for( '/foo' ),
        '';

And I get:

    $ GET http://bumby:85/foo.html >/dev/null

    request = http://bumby:85/foo.html
    bumby:85
    http://bumby:85/foo

So, that's correct.

Throw in some warn statements in Catalyst::Engine::Apache.
