I believe you could resolve this as follows (although it is really a 
"brute force" method) :
Instead of one <VirtualHost *:*>, you could define 2 sections, entirely 
copy of eachother except for :

<VirtualHost *:81>
  PerlSetVar ConnType "HTTP"
  ....
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:82>
  PerlSetVar ConnType "HTTPS"
  ....
</VirtualHost>

and then in your script/handler get the ConnType config value to tell 
the difference.
