Sorry for not making this clear, but you don't have to explain it to me
in the list archives; rather, the commit message should sufficiently
take care of it.  That is, I was objecting to your (lack of a) commit
message.

The argument you need to counter here is (Daniel explains this) curl
does an extra roundtrip to the proxy to determine which protocols work,
which is a little extra cost.
