Comment:

 Thanks to BMeph for pin-pointing the problem so clearly. Thanks to
 Sigbjorn Finne for doing all the hard work of updating the HTTP package.

   * Update to using HTTP-4000.x
   This should fix a long-standing bug with http proxies (ticket #352)
   It should also make downloads faster, or at least use less memory.
