To actually disable all http-functionality you also have to disable
all nginx http modules.

In nginx 1.9.5 the spdy module was superseded by http2.
Update your configs and package.use accordingly.

The one-time only attempt to adjust permissions of the

Looks like your installation is vulnerable to CVE-2016-1247
(bug #605008) because nginx user is able to create files in

  ${EPREFIX}/var/log/nginx

Also ensure that no other log directory used by any of your
vhost(s) is not writeable for nginx user. Any of your log files
used by nginx can be abused to escalate privileges!

This nginx installation comes with a mitigation for the HTTPoxy
vulnerability for FastCGI, SCGI and uWSGI applications by setting
the HTTP_PROXY parameter to an empty string per default when you
are sourcing one of the default

  - 'fastcgi_params' or 'fastcgi.conf'
  - 'scgi_params'
  - 'uwsgi_params'

files in your server block(s).

If this is causing any problems for you make sure that you are sourcing the
default parameters _before_ you set your own values.
If you are relying on user-supplied proxy values you have to remove the
correlating lines from the file(s) mentioned above.
