Or, alternatively, can I turn off connection re-use altogether? I don't know that our traffic level needs persistent connections.

OK, I believe I got it... no 502s in the past half hour. I added a

SetEnv proxy-nokeepalive 1

to the <Location> blocks that were proxied through the offending firewall.

This is even documented (blush):

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy.html#envsettings

It seems to be working great: connections to the back-end are sent with the Connection: close header and immediately torn down after the request with a FIN sequence. Connections between the Application Router and the client remain full HTTP/1.1, with Keepalive.

Neat.
