#1158 HTTP GET through proxy passes '#anchor' part of the URL

[geronime]

Hello,

see following curl commands and netcat outputs of done requests (first without proxy, second one with localhost privoxy) - with proxy the '#anchor' part of the URL is passed through but without the proxy it is not. I am unsure about what the correct behaviour should be, but e.g. wget behaves the same with and without proxy.

$ curl -v -s -XGET 'http://127.0.0.1:10000/path?param=val#anchor'
