The full URL needs to be passed to the internal server in order
for it to form correct URLs for redirects and such.
The /vhost/ trick passes scheme ("http"), host ("external.org") and
port (":80"), but not the path. So you need the /subpath there.
There has been talk about alternate ways of doing the same, but
that code does not exist yet.
Just use the /subpath.
