Comment:

 This was discussed in a triage session today.

 As load balancers forward SSL headers and host headers in a variety of
 ways there's not much WordPress can do that's going to work universally.

 The common solution is to hard code the values of `$_SERVER['HTTPS']`,
 `WP_SITEURL` and `WP_HOME` to match what is expected at the load balancer.

 I saw you found the support forums for this, they are the best spot to ask
 so I am going to close this off as `invalid`, which is trac's unfriendly
 term to indicate this is best asked in support.
