Hello,
using the lowercase environment proxy variables works as documented:
# http_proxy=http://doesnotexist wget gnu.org
--2015-06-30 10:58:36-- http://gnu.org/
Resolving doesnotexist (doesnotexist)... failed: Name or service not known.
wget: unable to resolve host address 'doesnotexist'
but using it with capitalized variables they are ignored:
# HTTP_PROXY=http://doesnotexist wget gnu.org
--2015-06-30 11:07:42-- http://gnu.org/
Resolving gnu.org (gnu.org)... 208.118.235.148

Variables are often written capitalized and they should not be ignored by
wget.
Thank you.
