I am working with a web server that does not quote the realm in the WWW-Authenticate header. This patch will make the realm parsing handle unquoted realm as well as some other invalid variations. I tried doing it by modifying the regex only but could not get it to handle all cases.

This is already fixed in the current code, unquoted realms are allowed with a warning.
