This bug has been fixed on the trunk of the Chromium source tree.
But the fix isn't in the latest Google Chrome release yet because
it is based on a branch created in November.  We didn't backport
the bug fix to the official branch because it's a big patch so there's
a risk that we may introduce other bugs when we adapt it for the
official branch, which uses a completely different HTTP stack.

Hopefully the fix will appear in a Dev Channel release as part of
our new HTTP stack very soon.

Note: the bug is not that Chromium doesn't support HTTP BASIC
and DIGEST authentication.  The bug is that Chromium will only
send a HTTP Authorization header after receiving a 401 Authorization
Required response to the first attempt of the request.
