No, I was using the current state of master yesterday:
decefd5778f0b1f3b0e1178f2264b39f3c294f10, but I believe that curl v7.64.0
in Debian Buster behaves the same way.

I've attached two logs. One from my build of master, and one from the
Debian Stretch version of curl (7.52.1.) It looks like v7.52.1 passes the
username and password on to the proxy in the URL, whereas master does not:

(master) * Issue another request to this URL: 'http://cam-unittest-fixture.brightsign/~unittest/cgi-bin/auth-digest/make-large2.rb?maxage=0&bytes=310'

vs

(7.52.1) * Issue another request to this URL: 'http://unittest:password@cam-unittest-fixture.brightsign/~unittest/cgi-bin/auth-digest/make-large2.rb?maxage=0&bytes=310'

I hope this makes things clearer.

Mike.
