It had all been a theoretical exercise. Today, trying to figure out
what the correct fix is to put it in an rpm I just cannot repro the
problem.

The reason it 'Just Works' is that Apache is actually also listening
on localhost. So Squid will gladly connecto localhost and issue an
HTTP/1.1 request saying 'host'.

Here is how I test that manually -- and apache replies nicely:

# telnet 127.0.0.1 80
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to 127.0.0.1.
Escape character is '^]'.
GET / HTTP/1.1
Host: schoolserver.test.xs.laptop.org

HTTP/1.1 302 Found
Date: Thu, 18 Jun 2009 12:59:45 GMT
Server: Apache/2.2.9 (Fedora)
Location: http://schoolserver.test.xs.laptop.org/moodle
Content-Length: 325
Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
... HTML output elided.

Now, there is a number of changes (some of them trivial in appearence)
in the apache configuration that could break the behaviour... have the
local teams installed any extra software or added/changed
configuration of Apache?

If so, which?

cheers,
