I'm experiencing the same issue and in my case it's definitely being rewritten by the load balancer. We're using an Equalizer from CoyotePoint. I just read the following in the manual:

In a Layer 7 HTTPS cluster, clients connect to the cluster IP using HTTPS connections. Equalizer terminates the HTTPS connection and communicates with the servers in the cluster using the HTTP protocol. By default, Equalizer examines server responses for http:// URLs and rewrites them as https:// URLs, so that these URLs work properly on the client. If, for example, a server sends an HTTP redirect using the Location: header, this URL most likely will include the http:// protocol. Equalizer rewrites this response so that the URL uses https://.

Apparently, I can disable "no header rewrite" to correct it.
