"system context" will make it use wrong(?) user name - at least when compared
to what winhttp does. See https://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=535
6.4 Negotiate needs a fake user name
6.4 Negotiate and Kerberos V5 need a fake user name
To get HTTP Negotiate (SPNEGO) authentication to work fine, you need to
provide a (fake) user name (this concerns both curl and the lib) because the
code wrongly only considers authentication if there's a user name provided.

In order to get Negotiate (SPNEGO) authentication to work in HTTP or Kerberos
V5 in the e-mail protocols, you need to provide a (fake) user name (this
concerns both curl and the lib) because the code wrongly only considers
authentication if there's a user name provided by setting
conn->bits.user_passwd in url.c https://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=440 How?
https://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2004-08/0182.html A possible solution is to
either modify this variable to be set or introduce a variable such as
new conn->bits.want_authentication which is set when any of the authentication
options are set.
