This solution is complete nonsense, I should have though about it more deeply :-/ There is no such thing as an exact match with a wildcard name. The place where the regexp (worker's alias) is exectuted and the resulting ap_regmatch_t vector is used to build the requested URL is proxy_trans(). Why would mod_proxy have to find (again) the worker later? I guess things may have been rewritten in between, or the like, but it looks like a duplicate search for some (marginal/too simple?) cases.
