What about:

    HTTP_PROXY          URL of the proxy to use for HTTP requests.  The docu-
                         ment part is ignored.  Only HTTP proxies are sup-
                         ported for HTTP requests.  If no port number is spec-
                         ified, the default is 3128.

                         Note that this proxy will also be used for FTP docu-
                         ments, unless the FTP_PROXY variable is set.

How does that not cover it?
