curl: (35) error:1408F10B:SSL routines:ssl3_get_record:wrong version number

* Uses proxy env variable http_proxy == 'https://proxy.in.tum.de:8080'   
                                         ^^^^^

The https:// is wrong, it should be http://. The proxy itself should be accessed by HTTP and not HTTPS even though the target URL is HTTPS. The proxy will nevertheless properly handle HTTPS connection and keep the end-to-end encryption. See HTTP CONNECT method for details how this is done.
