I have attached the output log. Did you file this bug against python too? Because if urllib strips the field when urllib2 doesn't, it's a clear bug of urllib. Are you sure it's not a misconfiguration or misfeature of your https proxy that would drop the field? (And maybe urllib2 creating it if it's missing?).

They might be interested to merge your changes. But for now I won't take them in the current Debian package. David and Rian, you can download the patches at http://bugs.debian.org/696122 (I'll also bounce you Carlos original mail).
