Comment (by stefwilliams):

 I've been having this same problem, trying to load a local RSS feed using
 wp_widget_rss_output in a mu_plugin, but I can't get wp_safe_remote_* to
 work...

 I specifically pass in the $args with 'reject_unsafe_urls' as false, but
 when it gets round to running the request in WP_Http, an error_log of the
 args are coming out with 'reject_unsafe_urls' as true, so it fails...

 Can you give an example of how to use wp_safe_remote_* properly? Or do I
 pass the arguments into wp_widget_rss_output somehow?
