The basic handshake should be unaltered:
request
denied, [auth schemes]
request w/basic

If NTLM is 'just working' with urlib (not urlib2) then we may be doing
something wrong. AFAIK though, we wouldn't interfere with NTLM if the
core supported it.
We might want to consider adopting urlib2 if it does have NTLM built in,
as that would be nice for windows users.
