Description:
------------
sendRequest function don't check if the server of the url requested is a loopback (localhost or 127.0.0.1).
So proxy server send a Connexion refused (503).

Test script:
---------------
define( 'PROXYNAME', 'proxy.example.com' );
define( 'PROXYPORT', '3128' );

$urlComplete = "http://127.0.0.1/foo.txt";
$req = &new HTTP_Request($urlComplete);
$req->setMethod(HTTP_REQUEST_METHOD_GET);
$req->setProxy(PROXYNAME,PROXYPORT);
$x = $req->sendRequest();
if (PEAR::isError($x)) {
echo "Problem";
die('');
}
if( $req->getResponseCode() == 503 ){
echo "connexion refused";
die('');
}
echo "get on localhost";

Expected result:
----------------
result of the script above
"get on localhost"

HTTP request must skip proxy server if 127.0.0.1

Actual result:
--------------
result of the script above
"connexion refused"
