Checking out the contents of the glib-networking RPM on Fedora for
instance, I see the following libs:

/usr/lib64/gio/modules/libgiognomeproxy.so
/usr/lib64/gio/modules/libgiognutls.so
/usr/lib64/gio/modules/libgiolibproxy.so

So there are indeed 2 additional GIO modules with the word "proxy" in
it. I would assume that it explains your guess.
This said, checking the prebuilt packages for Windows (both the Fedora
and OpenSUSE ones), I see only one DLL:

lib/gio/modules/libgiognutls.dll

Why aren't the other proxy-related modules not built there? Are they
based on technologies not available on Windows?
On which platform did you notice that transparent proxy support works?
