It's unsurprising that 2.878 didn't fix this, as it didn't contain any 
changes intended to.

However, since I had the code open in my editor, I took look at this...

This is pretty difficult to investigate without access to a (working) 
NTLM proxy (getting even ntlm_fake_auth working in squid is beyond me...).

Nevertheless, testing with that did suggest something, so I built a 
snapshot (See [1] for source) which tries something different, and does 
a bit more logging, so setup.log.full might shed a bit more light on why 
this doesn't work.

Please test.
