NTLM (or any authentication) on the "transparent" interception port will
not work anyway.

As Henrik said the client-facing HTTP/1.1 is very experimental and
broken in a few small but annoying ways so avoiding it on this port is a
good thing.

Just the above by itself enables HTTP/1.1 for client connections to the
proxy.

Only affects connections to that one peer.

"server_http11 on" is the other setting to do HTTP/1.1 for DIRECT
connections to general web servers.

persistent connections also need to be turned on for both client and
servers for NTLM auth to have a chance.
