Infinite loop on basic authentication
-------------------------------------

                 Key: HTTPCLIENT-1140
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1140
             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: HttpClient
    Affects Versions: 4.1.2, 4.1.1
         Environment: All
            Reporter: Marcus Bond


Class org.apache.http.impl.client.DefaultRequestDirector has a bug whereby when 
Authentication fails if the log is not warnEnabled then you will receive a 
retry request and end up in an infinite loop retrying requests.. This occurred 
for me when SL4J was being picked up as the implementation but not properly 
configured.

In 4.1.2 the line number of the offending code is in the handleResponse method, 
line 1126, the return null statement requires moving outside of the if 
statement that checkes if the log is warn enabled.
