Branded URL via Sites to Partner Portal

I want my partners to use something like https://partners.mycompany.com/partners to access the SFDC Partner Portal (PP).

My PP and a configured PP user can access the PP at an address something like this:  https://na1.salesforce.com/secur/login_portal.jsp?orgId=00D34200000a6II&portalId=06036345600ogqe

I was hoping that by setting up a Site with a CName record pointing the
Custom Web Address of partners.mycompany.com to my Site URL
(mycompany.force.com) and then enabling the Site for Partner login and
creating a Site URL Redirect to the secure PP URL + orgId and portalId
params, I could get the login form for the Portal to display, log the PP
user in, and render the PP home page.

It almost works, but regardless of whether I do:

http://partners.mycompany.com/partners

or

https://partners.mycompany.com/partners

I end up with the Site.Login page being http://blahblah instead of https://blahblah.  The Site URL Redirect 301 rule has the https:// full URL.  But the form renders in the clear.  Manually add the "s", refresh the page, and the login works, followed by the PP home page.

Should I be able to use Sites enabled for Partner Portal log-in to work
via an branded URL?  If so, any pointers as to what I might be doing
wrong?
