Nice. If a Windows dev could test, and if it works well, please we would welcome the patch to have it tested in the configure script as an alternative. Someone was noting that the GNU implementation was also fixing proxy connection issues, no? I wonder if this new backend also takes care of this aspect (if not, that's not as necessary as TLS support, but that's worth noting). Thanks for the news.
