I've seen similar reports before, but I've never managed to repeat it and I
don't think anyone tried tracking it down properly.

I tried your exact command line just now and it worked fine with my local
proxy. I'll try some other tricks to see if I can trigger this problem.

Yeah, unfortunately that was a rather large commit and it changed a lot of
internal choices at once so there's really no way to easily go back or just
revert something smallish.

We need to just roll up our sleeves and dig in with traditional debugging to
