err... No. Actually, the request.uri_base should be at this point /app1 ...

When Apache proxys the request from /app1/something to dancer, he
rewrites it as /something, and sets one header (I forget which one)
with /app1, and that should be what request.uri_base returns.

I'll setup something like this, and see if I can get it to work
tomorrow morning, I need to sleep now.

Bye,
