So, I missed that line the last time I looked here. That line is output
in just one place, and is a fairly straightforward bit of code (in
http.c, a little ways below a call to known_authentication_scheme_p,
which determines when the message is displayed). The fact that you're
seeing this message means that your copy of Wget was built without
support for NTLM.

It's unlikely that you explicitly disabled it; most likely you didn't
have openssl and its associated headers installed where the configure
script could find it. The current development sources will now tell you
which compile-time options it was built with, but that won't help you
for Wget 1.11.x.

You mentioned you'd be willing to try out patches, so I'm guessing this
means you have a build environment. When you do your build, look
carefully at what config.log says it set LIBSSL to. If it's empty, it
didn't find a suitable SSL library. (Another way to check is if your
Wget balks at https URLs with "unsupported scheme" messages.)

If you didn't build the copy of Wget 1.11.4 you were first having
trouble with, please report this issue to the packager from whom you
obtained it.

Please tell me one way or another whether this fixes your problem, so I
can close out this issue with confidence, or update it with new information.
