Facebook SDK v4 behind a proxy

This is a really short note.

If You try to use this SDK behind a proxy e.g. in a Drupal site with simple_fb_connect module You may experience that the SDK wont honor Your proxy_server settings done sitewide. All requests try to go to FB servers directly and timing out. 🙁

I made the change below to workaround this.

     if ($method !== 'GET') {

Now the requests going to the proxy.

I didnt found any other solutions on the Internet. This may mean that there is a trivial point somewhere for this setting which I didnt found or nobody used before that SDK behind proxy?
