[Bug 939657] [NEW] Generates a dbus roundtrip with every HTTP request

[Chris Coulson]

Public bug reported:

Firefox 11 has the ability to load proxy settings from gconf. However,
it generates a dbus roundtrip to dconf with every HTTP request, because
we call g_settings_new each time. I've submitted a patch upstream for
this, and this bug is just to remind me that we need to backport it to
the beta so that we don't ship the release like this
