I would rather recommend using complex values here, as it's
simpliest way to use variables.

Basically all it needs is using ngx_http_set_complex_value_slot
instead of ngx_conf_set_str_slot in configuration directive
definition, and an additional ngx_http_complex_value() call before
use.

Complete example can be found in secure link module.
