The error message

    Error parsing proxy URL wpad://: Unsupported scheme `wpad'.

comes from Wget when the environment variable http_proxy is set to
wpad:// .

As of Wget 1.12, Anyone can reproduce the problem as follows:

    $ env LANG=C http_proxy=wpad:// wget http://example.org/
    Error parsing proxy URL wpad://: Unsupported scheme `wpad'.

I don't know where this comes from, except that it has something to do
with the Gnome network proxy settings.  It would be great if someone
could shed some light on this puzzle.  :-)
