I can see how this would work, but I think I would rather have the fix the
other way: the ftp_proxy (and other *_proxy variables) should not be used at
all if HTTP is disabled.

Thus, you wouldn't have to explicitly disable proxy when running HTTP
disabled. I think that would be the most consistent approach.

Attached here is my suggestion. It would be nice if you could verify that this
works as intended. I'll commit it then.
