Ah my mistake, after stepping through the rewrite valve code it turns out
the rule wasn't working after all. The [host] flag for the rule means
you're comparing the host header rather than the url of the request. For
anyone else setting up virtual-host rewriting, the correct rewrite.config
for this scenario would simply be as follows:
RewriteRule .+cdn\.domain\.com cdn.domain.com [host]
The requests are now getting sent to the correct virtual host and its
designated access log.
Sorry for the noise,
Peter
