I've run into this as an issue with a server that replies with both
digest and basic auth.

When parsing the keys in the header it's possible to detect the start of
a different auth method, so I'd suggest parsing the www-authenticate
line and returning a dict for each type of auth containing the
appropriate key,value pairs.

This approach should allow every auth type to be catered for.
