no, thank you for putting up with the break. I'm going to have to sit down
and work out why the tests dont work properly with http proxy settings
defined; I guess its potentially forking jvms or something. I think the
fundamental cause is that the windows JVM doesnt default to getting its
settings from IE, even though webstart and the applet runtime somehow manage
to do it. Instead we need to hack it by hand and have it propagate.

- Who has to set up their systems to run functional tests through proxies?
- How do they do it? ANT_OPTS?, some other trick.
- Ant 1.5has <setproxy> to set socks or http proxy, but it doesnt handle
authenticated proxies (yet). It does the right thing across all known ant
jvms tho'. We could insert proxy setting that way if it would work for
everyone.

The other trick would be to split online and offline tests, have a
<condition> to probe something like apache.com for being reachable, and skip
all online tests if we are offline. there are hints of a plan for this
somewhere, with test.functional.remote being the switch -it just isnt active
any more.
