The $proxy_host and $proxy_port variables in the official nginx core
do not allow dynamic lookup in scripting languages like Lua and Perl.
And your use case requires the following patch for the official nginx
core or just a recent version of OpenResty (which includes the patch
for its bundled nginx core by default):
http://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail/nginx-devel/2013-October/004440.html
The $upstream_addr does *not* have this limitation and should work out
of the box though. Are you 100% sure you have no typos in your Lua
code?

Well, this patch never gets merged into the mainline nginx because
Maxim Dounin thought it was useless (you can see his response in the
followup emails in that very thread).
I've tried the following minimal example on my side with the latest
OpenResty 1.7.7.1 RC2 release and it works as expected:
location = /t {
proxy_pass http://agentzh.org/;
header_filter_by_lua '
ngx.log(ngx.ERR, "proxy host: ", ngx.var.proxy_host)
ngx.log(ngx.ERR, "upstream addr: ", ngx.var.upstream_addr)
';
}
Accessing /t produces the following 2 nginx error log messages on my side:
[error] 22381#0: *1 [lua] header_filter_by_lua:2: proxy host:
agentzh.org ...
[error] 22381#0: *1 [lua] header_filter_by_lua:3: upstream addr:
106.187.41.147:80 ...
