Description
Looks like because it is not using proxy settings when using Download,
it hangs then npm install process in corporate/enterprise proxy environment.
```
> gifsicle@3.0.4 postinstall .../node_modules/gifsicle
> node lib/install.js
{ hangs like forever }
```

Start in node lib/install.js and follow the Download path described in the issue. Reproduce the gifsicle postinstall hang with npm install in a corporate or enterprise proxy environment, then verify that the download honors the configured proxy settings and no longer hangs.
