 From what I can understand of the issue you describe, it sounds like
 the problem resides on the remote side, and not Asterisk's side.

 You are sending an invalid request in your first query, and the
 remote side is sending "Unauthorized", meaning that it believes you
 have supplied credentials, but they are the wrong credentials.  This
 is the end of the conversation, since both sides have given their
 "final words" on the subject.

"Unauthorized" means that the message contained no credentials or the server was unable to verify the credentials. When a user agent (asterisk) gets an "Unauthorized" message then it is supposed to retry with proper credentials.

 What arguably _should_ be happening is that the remote SIP host
 should be sending "407 Proxy Authentication Required", but it's not.
 Therefore, Asterisk is behaving correctly.  This is not a bug in
 Asterisk.

That depends on the type of the remote host. Registrars, PSTN gateways, and user agents send 401, proxies send 407.

  In any case asterisk should be able to handle both for any type of
  message except ACK and CANCEL (which can not be challenged).

OK. My fault, then, for trying to just remember the RFC instead of going and actually reading it. :)
