This is a very common problem in reverse proxies built using redirectors, and is one of many reasons why I recommend straight mappings as far as possible where the URL to the reverse proxy is forwarded as-is to the real web server with no rewrites. Drawback is that a straight mapping places some requirements on the web server. Mainly that it needs to run on port 80 and needs to understand the externally visible hostname as it's own. Also if you split the URL space of a virtual published server among several servers having different content then it's important each server has it's content in a unique directory, and the reverse proxy routes the requests to the correct server based on the requested directory.
