My attempt to fix NTLM by falling back to NTLMv1 when 64-bit integer support is detected was performed in commit 82fdb87b27 on the 12th December so you might want to try this.

If NTLM worked before January last year then it should work again ;-)

Ah. I wasn't aware of this.

I'm mainly a Windows programmer myself and starting to dabble a little bit into the Linux world through my work with curl (especially with my GSS-API work) - I have a VM that I sometimes transfer my patches to and compile there.
