That "somebody above" was me: Sorry for this red herring, my memory 
obviously didn't serve me right there and I should have searched the 
list archive for any mentioning of this (non-existent) bug.
Glad to see it all worked out at the end!

Incidentally, I've now had time and tried two different netinstall 
images (7.3 and 7.0, both amd64) in a VirtualBox install. At the point 
during the installation when the installer asks about any proxy, it 
makes no difference whether or not I add the trailing slash:
http://192.168.0.127:3142  and
http://192.168.0.127:3142/
both work fine. In other words, I can't reproduce the original error 
described in Anubhav's original question (24/01/14)

Could it just be that the OP typed this in when asked for a mirror 
rather than for the proxy?
