HTTP_HOST is the more appropriate, as it will fit both the situation in which the Host: header matches the ServerName, as well as any ServerAlias, as well as any undefined virtual host name or alias that just so happens to end up on the virtualhost (with multiple virtualhosts, if the Host: header doesn't match with any of the virtualhosts' ServerName nor ServerAlias configuration values, the first virtualhost is used). Setting the value to SERVER_NAME however restricts use to the Host: header matching the ServerName configuration directive exactly (and not the ServerAlias).
