Thanks veyr much for that fix. The problem has disappeared for me too.

However, I've encountered another problem with the http_proxy
environment variable.

Usually, I have http_proxy=http://www-cache:80 and this works without
problems with all versions up to 7.16.1-20061222. With curl version
7.16.1-20061226 (and all later builds), I just get the error message

curl: (7) couldn't connect to host

If I change the environment variable so it includes the complete domain
name then curl works again with all versions.

Yours,

Rob Foreman
