Players behind firewalls that use a non-transparent WWW proxy
(i.e. outgoing port 80 is blocked) cannot use the Metaserver
button in civclient.  The attached patch fixes this for the
Xaw client by making it use the $http_proxy env var.

For example, wa local Squid proxy (my test environment), use

% env http_proxy=http://localhost:3128/ civclient
