Fix SF bug 468948 & 451295: urllib2 authentication problems
Fix contributed by Jeffrey C. Ollie.
I haven't tested the fix because the situation is non-trivial to
reproduce.
The basic solution is to get rid of the __current_realm attribute of
authentication handlers. Instead, prevent infinite retries by
checking for the presence of an Authenticate: header in the request
object that exactly matches the Authenticate: header that would be
added.
The problem prevent authentication from working correctly in the
presence of retries.
Ollie mentioned that digest authentication has the same problem and I
applied the same solution there.
