Commit

    45a1cb2a ("Disable DCO if proxy is set via management")

attempted to disable DCO when proxy is set via management interface. However,
at least on Windows this doesn't work, since:

 - setting tuntap_options->disable_dco to true is not enough to disable DCO
 - at this point it is a bit too late, since we've already done DCO-specific
adjustments

Since proxy could be set via management only if --management-query-proxy is specified,
the better way would be to add a check to dco_check_startup_option().

Straight and to the point :-)

Minimally tested with a linux t_client setup that uses DCO and proxy (but
no --managment-query-proxy).

Your patch has been applied to the master and release/2.6 branch (bugfix).
