I could even more likely be mistaken, but I don't think a Negotiate
authenticated request needs to be preceded by a non-Negotiate
authenticated request.

I don't see anything in the response from the failed first request that
the Negotiate request would need/use. Here's the initial non-Negotiate
exchange:

Also, I'm fairly sure that Firefox, which also does Negotiate, doesn't
send a non-Negotiate request prior to using Negotiate.
ISTM that curl should be able to just jump to using Negotiate for the
first request and it should work.
I could probably add some more debug to figure out why this two phase
requesting is happening, but likely you have much more familiarity and
could eliminate that first request a lot quicker than I can. :-)
