Comment:

 This support has actually been there for some time, and it still appears
 to work fine in my quick testing.  Note that as jmr mentions in
 [comment:ticket:13158:5 comment 5] that only the http_proxy is lower case,
 all the others are upper case (see 'man curl' for all the env vars
 applicable).

 I was able to 'port fetch' and it went through my proxy (set with
 http_proxy); I don't have extra_env set at all.  Also, for sudo, this
 shouldn't be stripped either; try a 'sudo env |grep -i proxy' to find out
 for sure.   It definitely isn't stripped here:

 {{{

 That came through the proxy since there's no way my DSL connection is that
 fast...
