Yes, SERVER_ADDR is expected to contain http server address, not
the address of fastcgi application.

Moreever, upstream's address (fastcgi application address in your
case) isn't available when nginx creates request to upstream (as
particular upstream server isn't selected yet, and even after
selection it may change due to proxy_next_upstream).

You should be able to find out fastcgi application's address in
fastcgi application itself, it's just a matter of calling
getpeername() on connection socket. Not idea how to do it in php
though.
