At least I think it should use server_url->protocol instead of
a fixed "http".

In the !proxy case server_url == url, and http_add_basic_authentication
works with NULL password and is a NOP with NULL username,
thus this whole code should be
if (proxy)
    http_add_basic_proxy_authentication(http_hdr, url->username, url->password);
http_add_basic_authentication(http_hdr, server_url->username, server_url->password);
