Thanks for your report, I had only tested it on cygwin and the
'Pragmatic installer'.

Since this issue affects the bootstrapping phase, I've decided to
release the correction through rubyforge.org (instead of only as an
incremental upgrade with  rpa install rpa-base).

Please try to
  rpa update
  rpa install rpa-base

The following options:

 --proxy http://whatever:8080
 --no-proxy        don't use a proxy, whatever ENV["http_proxy"] says

should be now honored when doing rpa update or rpa install, as well as when
running directly a "RPAfied install.rb" (i.e. the sort of things you get
when you do rpa source portname; cd portname).
