Comment (by ssuess):

 I was able to work around this and update by changing my wp-config
 directives to:


 {{{
 define('WP_SITEURL', 'https://' . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']);
 define('WP_HOME', 'https://' . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']);
 }}}

 And also adding a param to my nginx conf to properly account for variable
 server names:

 {{{
 fastcgi_param SERVER_NAME $host;
 }}}

 without both of the above, my particular setup would not work properly.
