I didn't look at this specific block of code in the Chameleon source, but
typically we have to use this variable as a replacement for
$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] when a proxy is involved. I believe it must be that
Chameleon needs the server's hostname to build URLs to include in templates that
refer to other chameleon scripts or documents, for instance drawmap.php.

When there is a proxy in-between the chameleon instance and the client, the
$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] variable is not set (or is set to the local address, I
don't remember), and we have to use $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST'] instead.
