I need something like ssh -D, but http proxy, not socks

[Ilya Basin]

Hi. Is there any existing ssh client for *nix with http proxy feature?
Maybe someone patched the ssh program from OpenSSH to add it?
I'm pretty sure it's possible.

You could either use dante-client's "socksify" and point it to -D
opened port or tell the HTTP application to use the socks proxy if it
supports it.

Or do you mean tunnelling SSH over HTTP?

The SSH protocol itself supports names
resolving on server (PuTTY is the proof), but ssh -D provides only
socks4, which doesn't support names resolving on server.

That's not the case for OpenSSH; it's supported socks5 since 2003 (v3.7
and up) and socks4a since January last year (v5.2 and up). Both of
those support resolving names on the server side if the socks client
asks for it (eg in Firefox, about:config ->
network.proxy.socks_remote_dns=true).
