Hi,

one of our customers wanted a content check for a URL looking roughly
like:

http://100.1.2.3:8080/httpserver/httpserver/isalive.jsp?password=aaa

Hobbit barfs on the "/http" in there and thinks this is http check
with a proxy URL. The following patch fixes this:

--- a/lib/url.c
+++ b/lib/url.c
@@ -563,7 +563,9 @@ char *decode_url(char *testspec, bburl_t
 	if (poststart) getescapestring(poststart, &bburl->postdata, NULL);
 	if (expstart)  getescapestring(expstart, &bburl->expdata, NULL);
 
-	p = strstr(urlstart, "/http");
+	p = strstr(urlstart, "/http://";);
+	if (!p)
+		p = strstr(urlstart, "/https://";);
 	if (p) {
 		proxystart = urlstart;
 		urlstart = (p+1);
