In issue #511 a problem was reported regarding NTLM and undesired session
sharing. This was caused by an attempt to limit the protection against
NTLM breakage to just NTLM and not properly working schemes in commit
fd9b68c48 ("BUG/MINOR: only mark connections private if NTLM is detected").
Unfortunately as reported in the issue above, the extent of possible
challenges for NTLM is a bit more complex than just the "NTLM" or
"Negotiate" words. There's also "Nego2" and these words can be followed
by a base64 value, which is not validated here. The list of possible
entries doesn't seem to be officially documented but can be reconstructed
from different public documents:

This patch tries to fix all this on top of previous attempts by making
as private any connection that returns a www-authenticate header starting
with "Nego" or "NTLM". We don't need to be too strict, we really just
want to leave the connection shared if really sure it can be.
This must be backported to 1.8 but will require some adaptations. In
1.9 and 2.0 the check appears both for legacy and HTX. The simplest
thing to do is to look for "Negotiate" and fix all relevant places.
