For peerings to work between accelerators you must enable
httpd_accel_with_proxy.

Also, make sure to set up proper access controls to only allow access to
your servers, not proxying in general (required as soon any of
httpd_accel_uses_host_header or httpd_accel_with_proxy is enabled, as
both can be used to ask your accelerator to contact any other host)
