mod_macro Apache

[ibbo]

Chaps,

Given the following config

<Macro VHostMacro $server $alias $docroot $port $rport $conf>
<VirtualHost *:$port>
ServerName $server
ServerAlias $alias

DocumentRoot $docroot

Include conf/$conf

</VirtualHost>
</Macro>

Sample of $conf

ProxyRequests off
ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:$rport/
ProxyPreserveHost on


The problem I have is that mod_macro vars (in this case $rport) does not get passed through to the include.

Is this a limitation of mod_macro or can we somehow get those vars to parse in the included files.
