 On our clients cloud hosting the $_SERVER['HTTPS'] nor '443' ==
 $_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] is set so wordpress is not able to determine if
 calles via https or not and activating the force ssl setting leads to a
 redirect loop.

 I've modified the is_ssl function to detect for environments like those:


 {{{
 /**
  * Determine if SSL is used.
  *
  * @since 2.6.0
  *
  * @return bool True if SSL, false if not used.
  */
 function is_ssl() {
         if ( isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) ) {
                 if ( 'on' == strtolower($_SERVER['HTTPS']) )
                         return true;
                 if ( '1' == $_SERVER['HTTPS'] )
                         return true;
         } elseif ( isset($_SERVER['SERVER_PORT']) && ( '443' ==
 $_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] ) ) {
                 return true;
         } elseif (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO']) && ( 'https'
 == $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO'] )) {
                 return true;
         }
         return false;
 }
 }}}
