For the plain HTTPS proxy functionality you don't need mod_ssl, because that's
done with the standard HTTP CONNECT method. So all you need is mod_proxy.
mod_ssl is only needed when you want to establish a _gateway_, for instance a
HTTP-to-HTTPS or HTTPS-to-HTTP gateway or even a HTTPS-to-HTTPS gateway which
maps URL trees. But what you're asking about seems to be just the plain HTTPS
proxy functionality.
