[issue7776] httplib.py: ._tunnel() broken

[Cameron Simpson]

Cameron Simpson <cs at zip.com.au> added the comment:

It's looking like I have my idea of .host versus ._tunnel_host swapped. I think things are still buggy, but my interpretation of the bug is wrong or misleading.

I gather that after _set_tunnel(), .host is the proxy host and that ._tunnel_host is the original target host.

I'll follow up here in a bit when I've better characterised the problem.
I think I'm letting urllib2's complicated state stuff confuse me too...
