Greetings, Andrew Schulman!

>> Hi cygwin maintainer,

>> I find you maintain socat package of cygwin.
>> please make it support proxy protocol, eg http/https/socat5/socat5h.
>> It's very useful, thanks ;p

> I just released socat 1.8.1.0-2 as a TEST release, with support for SOCKS4,
> SOCKS4a, and SOCKS5. I don't have a SOCKS server to test those against, so
> please install the test release, and test it with your SOCKS server. For
> example, try

> socat TEXT:'GET / HTTP/1.1\n' SOCKS4:socksserver:cygwin.com:80

> Then post your results to the Cygwin list.

As a quick OT: you can get a simple SOCKS server from running ssh with
`-D 1080` switch (port is an example).
