Enabling fetch.type svn to work with a proxy

I'm trying to install netpbm from behind a firewall and it isn't working
because 'fetch.type svn' doesn't honor http_proxy.
Newer svn versions support the following:
$ svn co \
--config-option servers:global:http-proxy-host=PROXY.MYDOMAIN.COM \
--config-option servers:global:http-proxy-port=8080
I'd like to add this to Tcl/port1.0/portfetch.tcl. Being a coder but
not a Tcl coder, how do I check if http_proxy is set in portfetch.tcl
and get that to svn's command line? Right now, I am unable to see the
http_proxy variable in portfetch.tcl
BTW, this seems better than adding a directory with a svn config file
and passing --config-dir to svn.
Thanks,
Blair
