Comment (by cas@…):

 This bug still exists in MythTV 29 and is now preventing mythbackend from
 starting.

 I just had to add `unset http_proxy https_proxy` to my `/etc/default
 /mythtv-backend` script (sourced by `/etc/init.d/mythtv-backend`)  to stop
 mythbackend from insanely trying to use my squid proxy to listen on port
 6549.

 There is no reason for any program to **ever** try to use a http_proxy to
 listen on a port.  That makes no sense at all.   The only reason to ever
 use a http proxy is when you're trying to fetch something.  i.e. a client
 requesting stuff, not a server listening.
