Thanks, series applied. To be honest, I hesitated a bit on PATCH 2/3
because I'm not quite sure to understand under which (realistic)
circumstances one would want to tweak BR2_GOPROXY. But fair enough,
since both Christian and you agreed on that, I took the patch. It
would have been nice to have some explanation of the "why" in the
commit message: as it is the commit message only explains the "how"
which is already clear by looking at the code.

Thanks!
