[Python-apps-team] Bug#613403: reopened: hg clone fails with https site behind an http proxy

No, I'm not using any extensions, I simply clone a googlecode HG
repository.

This is very strange, I also could not reproduce this bug on other machine
that has direct Internet access. This runs OK:

iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -j DROP
http_proxy=http://95.31.10.190:3128 https_proxy=http://95.31.10.190:3128
strace hg clone https://mediawiki4intranet.googlecode.com/hg/
mediawiki4intranet

But when I'm trying this at work (proxy.custis.ru:3128 is an intranet
proxy, port 443 is closed on the router), it fails and strace looks very
strange - it seems hg connects to the proxy and starts tunnel connection,
but then also tries to connect directly (see attached strace.gz).
This command fails:
http_proxy=http://proxy.custis.ru:3128/
https_proxy=http://proxy.custis.ru:3128/ hg clone
https://mediawiki4intranet.googlecode.com/hg/ mediawiki4intranet
