I have not found this in the documentation. Guess I was just blind. I just read 
again and ... well what can I say ;-)

> Support Spnego Authentication using Kerberos
> --------------------------------------------

>                 Key: HTTPCLIENT-1018
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1018
>             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: HttpAuth
>            Reporter: Christian Schneider

> Many bigger companies use Kerberos Authentication. When used on Webservers 
> this usually means that the server uses the Spnego Protocoll to negotiate 
> with the client which authentication to use. 
> So Httpclient should support the Spnego protocoll together with Kerberos 
> authentication to authenticate against this class of webservers.
> The spring security project with it´s kerberos extension already supports the 
> spnego and kerberos protocol on the server side. The source code shows how 
> the authentication is done on the server side and will surely help to 
> implement the client part.
