Comment (by dcf):

 meek-client is capable of using an upstream HTTP proxy
 ([https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-dev/2014-March/006363.html
 since here]), but you have to set it up manually, either with a command-
 line option
 {{{
 Bridge meek 0.0.2.0:1
 ClientTransportPlugin meek exec ./meek-client
 --url=http://meek.bamsoftware.com:7002/ --http-
 proxy=http://127.0.0.1:8787/
 }}}
 or with a bridge line arg
 {{{
 Bridge meek 0.0.2.0:1 url=http://meek.bamsoftware.com:7002/ http-
 proxy=http://127.0.0.1:8787
 ClientTransportPlugin meek exec ./meek-client
 }}}
