7.9.5 did not set the default port to 1080 properly. We've discussed this
before, and this was fixed in 7.9.6. Therefor, the above operation connects
to port 80 on the proxy, while...

... this connects to port 1080. Do I need to explain more why there are
differences in behavior?

Try connecting the 7.9.5 version to port 1080, and you'll get the same
behavior. Or point 7.9.6 to port 80.
