You can find out really quick (once you have a proxy around) by just
displaying the HTTP request libcurl is passing to the proxy. I've not heard
anyone suffering from a problem like this before.

In fact, I jotted down a new test case right now because of your report, that
follows a Location: while using a http proxy, and it seems to do the correct
thing. (tests/data/test43 is available in the CVS)

I'm of course not ruling out that a bug *may* lurk in there.
