Unable to `url-retrieve' over HTTPS via proxy at work (but curl works fi

Hi,

`url-retrieve’ gets status=400 when I try to retrieve an HTTPS URL. It works 
fine for HTTP.

My proxy is configured with an environment variable, and debugging the process 
I was able to confirm that it is finding the correct proxy.

I tested the same URL with curl, and that worked fine.

I turned on all logging by setting url-debug=t, and I ran curl in verbose mode 
and compared the output from each. It seems like curl is using the CONNECT 
method to create a tunnel, then passing the GET request to the non-proxy host 
through the tunnel, whereas `url-retrieve’ is sending the GET to the proxy (and 
getting status=400).

Does anyone know how I can get the emacs url library to behave like curl?

I’m pasting the debugging output below. First the output from *URL-DEBUG*, then 
the output from curl.

Thanks,
Jay
