One thing about this patch is that the CURLOPT_NOPROXY option is ignored
if the proxy is set through an environment variable. It's probably a bit
odd that an app would set CURLOPT_NOPROXY without CURLOPT_PROXY, but if it
happens libcurl ought to honour it.
It occurred to me while looking over this patch that the proxy matching in
the existing (and patched) libcurl isn't quite right. A NO_PROXY of
"local.com" will match a host "www.notlocal.com" which isn't what one would
normally expect. That's probably something that should be addressed in the
future, unless you want to tackle it now, of course!
