It wasn't the env vars (see below). So, for the sake of docs,
I would just mention the bundled wgetrc file's location and
tell people to set proxy info there. I've no idea why, yesterday,
that alone did not work for me when I tried it with --location,
but I am going to chalk it up to an error with the specific
mirrors I chose or something.
install-tl:cairo> unset http_proxy
install-tl:cairo> unset ftp_proxy
install-tl:cairo> unset TL_DOWNLOAD_ARGS
install-tl:cairo> ./install-tl -v

Okay, that's all from me on this.
