 Sorry for the delay. Keeping the code as simple as possible:

 {{{
 print_r( wp_remote_get( 'http://localhost:9200' ) );
 }}}

 This does not work in the latest nightly build (I get "A valid URL was not
 provided."). I tested it on 3.5.2 as requested and it ''does'' continue to
 work there. Of course, you don't need to be running an elasticsearch
 server to test this; you'd either get "couldn't connect to host" or "a
 valid url was not provided" on 3.5.2 and trunk respectively. I tested with
 non-local hosts, IPs (local and public), and got the same results in all
 cases (not particularly surprising since the issue is the port, but
 there's no harm in thorough testing).
