Port redirectors do exactly what they say they do, they redirect ports. They
do not care which ports, be it 80 or 21 and thus it should be no problem to
have virtual servers on a machine that the request is redirected to. If that
presents a problem you can fix it by reading the requested_host variable
with something like Perl or PHP and redirect it on the machine by yourself,
after the request has arrived.
