I'm sorry to inform you, but that won't work with the standard bitbake! Which 
uses own HTTP_PROXY, FTP_PROXY, HTTP_PROXY_IGNORE and FTP_PROXY_IGNORE vars.

I tried to persuade RP to change that back to standard http_proxy, ftp_proxy 
and no_proxy to no avail[1].

Because of that I had to keep my own version of bitbake[2] with the necessary 
patches for my users - check the top 4 patches in that tree. Although, 
GIT_PROXY_COMMAND one is already in the bitbake master...

And looks like Khem has already pushed the above change though...
