Over the last hour I realised that I have IIS running on my Exchange Server
with various directories that use HTTP authentication.

As such, I've just been testing the /rpc directory and whilst I eventually I
get a 404 error I can see that the following happens:

* Curl sends a NTLM type-1 message to the server via a "GET /rpc" request.
* The server then responds with a 401 unauthorized page containing the
type-2 message.
* Curl then makes another GET request sending the type-3 message.
* Server responds with the 404 - As I can't remember / work out what the
correct page address is!

In addition to this, I have been stepping through the code under the
debugger and realised that some of the "skip initial whitespace" sections
can come out functions like Curl_input_ntlm() but in essence my patch
appears to work.

I won't push the fix yet just in case a) there is other feedback or b)
someone gets chance to run my patch against the test suite.

Kind Regards

Steve
