Proxy buggies?

[Kevin Wang (The Scarecrow)]

I am currently writing my own proxy server, so...  I am now playing
with the non-http forwarding capabilities (I am basing my proxy on
libwww3.0per2)

When I try a gopher url "gopher://library.calpoly.edu/" the actual
header that is sent is:
GET http://locahost:8080/gopher://library.calpoly.edu/ HTTP/1.0
Accept: image/tiff
Accept: image/tiff
Accept: image/gif
Accept: image/jpeg
Accept: image/jpeg
Accept: image/x-portable-bitmap
Accept: image/x-portable-graymap
Accept: image/x-pict
Accept: image/x-portable-pixmap
Accept: image/x-xbitmap
Accept: image/gif
Accept: *; q=0.500
Accept: text/html x-gzip
Accept: text/plain x-gzip
Accept: text/html x-compress
Accept: text/plain x-compress
Accept: text/html gzip
Accept: text/plain gzip
Accept: text/html compress
Accept: text/plain compress
Accept: text/plain
Accept: text/html
Referer: http://www.calpoly.edu/
User-Agent: OmniWeb/1.0-PR2  libwww/2.16pre2

First, there's a hell of a lot of duplication in there...
Second, is this line really correct?
>GET http://locahost:8080/gopher://library.calpoly.edu/ HTTP/1.0

I thought that it should read something like 
>GET gopher://library.calpoly.edu/ HTTP/1.0
???

Am I wrong?

ftp requests seem to be okay:
GET ftp://ftp.uu.net/ HTTP/1.0

news, too:
GET news:/ HTTP/1.0

I have yet to test WAIS.
