Comment(by datallah):

 I'm going to ignore the first few messages since my last reply, it looks
 to me like there was some confusion that was subsequently resolved - if
 there is something in those that is a real problem, please let me know.

 We can't (shouldn't) reverse the order of the entries in that enum - that
 would cause the value previously used for `ENVVAR` to change.  The order
 in the enum isn't at all correlated with the order of the items displayed
 in the GUI, the selection is determined by value, not by order.

 I can't recreate the problem you're experiencing here - please make sure
 that you're using a clean build, particularly since your patching changed
 the ints for the proxy type enum.
 The proxy configuration settings in the GUI should (and do) appear in all
 cases except "No proxy" and "Use environmental settings".
