I don't think --disable-http is properly supported. I'll make a note about
that in KNOWN_BUGS. AFAIK, the other protocols are possible to disable
properly.

So is that really supposed to work then? If you disable HTTP, should libcurl
really support any operations that involve HTTP then? What about using ftp
over a http-proxy? That's done entirely using HTTP...

Feel free to fix and mail us patches. I personally don't work on the
--disable-[protocol] stuff very much and I have no intentions of doing so
before 7.10 is released. If you find problems, please correct them and mail
us diffs.
