I believe our apache servers convert X-Http-Forwarded-For: in to
X_HTTP_FORWARDED_FOR as an environment variable not
"HTTP_FORWARDED_FOR" as mentioned above.  Of course you'll be printing
%ENV while debugging to work this out anyway, just thought I'd add.

For the BBC (now Siemens) people who may vote (is anyone adding the
email votes or do I need to vote again?) we're likely to need this
code as we only have a small set of outgoing proxy IPs and I know our
proxy software does sent the HTTP header X-Http-Forwarded-For.

Thanks,

Damion
