## cannot use absolute Unix domain filename for SOCKS on Windows
curl supports using a Unix domain socket path for speaking SOCKS to a proxy,
by providing a filename in the URL used for `-x` (`CURLOPT_PROXY`), but that
path cannot be a proper absolute Windows path with a drive letter etc.
A solution for this probably requires that we add and provide a
`--unix-socket` (`CURLOPT_UNIX_SOCKET_PATH`) option alternative for proxy
communication.
