The one thing that httpc doesn't do is allow https traffic through a proxy.
This means that you can't, for example, use it to access github behind a
corporate firewall. If this was fixed, I'd revert back to httpc. Given that
ibrowse *does* allow this, I can't imagine that it's impossible to make it
work in httpc.
