>Description:
When running "make install" on ports (devel/autoconf257) fetch(1) will not go thru an HTTP proxy.  This manifests itself as repeated "Host not found" errors when running "make install".      
>How-To-Repeat:
Run "make install" when behind a HTTP proxy.  This is evident even when the HTTP_PROXY environment variable is set.      
>Fix:
Have fetch(1) respect HTTP proxy settings when run from ports "make install".
