Nah, the failing test is still disabled :(

TIL there a n+1 ways to disable a test.

Anyway, I think preemptive digest auth doesn't make any sense: I don't think the client can possibly know the nonce beforehand. Except if someone provide information showing preemptive digest auth makes sense, it will be dropped in a future version.
