NTLM works identically over SSL or not so I fail to see how that changes
anything really...

Instead of using ethereal/wireshark to see what happens over the wire, I
suggest you use CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION (feel free to copy some code from this
example: http://curl.haxx.se/lxr/source/docs/examples/debug.c) to dump the
complete incoming and outgoing headers and data.

Then verify that it truly gets a 200 back but thinks it is a 407 as then it
must be some major confusion on libcurl's behalf that needs to be addressed.
