I suppose you use the server field of the request_rec structure and not 
some stored server_rec that was passed to you in post_config or 
somewhere else.

Apache keeps a linked list of server_rec structures. The head of the 
list is the server_rec of the whole apache server. The rest of the list 
contains one server_rec structure per vhost. For each request apache 
picks the right server_rec from the list according to the Host header 
and sets r->server to point to the picked object.

Also make sure that your request really arrives in the vhost you 
intended. Typically I check this by logging to different files (see the 
CustomLog directive) in each vhost.
