hi!
apache mod_proxy (ProxyPass & ProxyPassReverse) should be capable. just use
apache as your proxy. bind it on the port you need, and use ProxyPass to
gather the response from the server behind. if you use a hostname, mod_proxy
should use it so that your backend server even may use name-based vhosts.
ip-based vhosts should work anyway (but would not be the problem, so i assume
you have name-based).
just a redirect to an ip (given that the "Host: " header contains the ip then)
has to fail - the information the backend server would need for managing the
vhost is missing.
another benefit of using apache as proxy is the easy https termination.
maybe check squid documentation, i didn't have to use it so far, but it should
be able to handle things like this too.
