mod_proxy_wstunnel (http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_proxy_wstunnel.html) was added in Apache 2.4.5 and later. However, it isn't available to set in APACHE2_MODULES for any of the Gentoo ebuilds, which currently include 2.4.6 and 2.4.7. This should be a fairly quick thing for the maintainer to fix. For example, mod_proxy_fcgi simply requires proxy_fcgi as part of APACHE2_MODULES. Since this proxy module is new, it was probably just overlooked.
Sorry for piggybacking (maybe), but I just thought about filing the same request, but for 2.2 backport. Work has already been done http://blog.cafarelli.fr/post/2013/04/26/Backporting-Apache-support-for-websockets-reverse-proxy-%28aka-getting-GateOne-to-work-behind-Apache%29 I'm running this in production on 2.2.25, works great. It'd be nice if I could get maintaining an apache ebuild in my overlay ;)
