We've had the same problem.

Our solution was to modify two values inside mapguide-apache httpd.conf.

ServerName should be your "mapguideexternalalias" (the URL of the
apache that is configured to access mapguide via proxy)
UseCanonicalName should be On

In this way self-referencing URL will be constructed using ServerName

Regards,

Gabriele
