[Discuss-gnuradio] Bug/Issue with "build-gnuradio" script

Hi,

I'd like to report an issue with the script: build-gnuradio - and a few of the other git sub-modules.

Problem statement #1
I'm behind a proxy that effectively "blocks" the GIT protocol - I can clone via HTTP, or HTTPS - but not via git://

Possible work arounds:
I know about the "instead-of" feature for GIT ... but that does not always work
Why? Because sometimes you must adjust the rest of the URL slightly
Yes, I put a very specific rule in for specifically this URL... but ... Ugh...
Also I would suggest/think that a "noob" would trip and stumble over this and not figure it out.

Suggested fix:
Convert the scripts, and submodules to reference/use http or https for cloning.
My belief is proxies work better with http requests.

In my case, I modified the build script to use http *and* had to adjust one of the urls to match

Thanks.
