Summary: fix for urllib2.AbstractBasicAuthHandler

Initial Comment:
This one-line patch fixes the authentication in urllib2
by making a regex case-insensitive. I don't know if
this is "correct" HTTP behavior, but at last one web
site (www.lexis.com) has a "Realm=" field in the
www-authenticate header, causing the current version to
fail.

Assigning to Jeremy, if this is correct, I can check it in.
