Comment (by yawning):

 I assume the failure case involves obfs4proxy.

 https://gitweb.torproject.org/pluggable-
 transports/obfs4.git/tree/obfs4proxy/proxy_http.go#n92

 https://github.com/golang/go/blob/master/src/net/http/request.go#L881
 {{{
 func (r *Request) SetBasicAuth(username, password string) {
         r.Header.Set("Authorization", "Basic "+basicAuth(username,
 password))
 }
 }}}
