Note Lib/test/test_urllib.py:261 ; there is a fake HTTP wrapper in the test. So 
the request is not really sent.

I modified FakeHTTPConnection to store the sent HTTP request. I also copied the 
test you mentioned from python3 to 2.7. The second test I add in the patch 
fails. The test should pass with python2.5 from OS X (did not run the test but 
checked headers against netcat).

Please take a look at the tests I added. I'm not sure if geturl() should return 
the quoted version or not. But certainly the quoted version must not be used in 
the base64. If you think geturl() should return the quoted version, I'm fine 
with that - in principle characters like \n in the password could be bad in an 
URL unless quoted.

Maybe the tests could ALSO be added to some other places, but I think this full 
path makes sense to check like this.
