[SRU] The attached debdiff backports cntlm-0.92.3-1ubuntu1 from Quantal to Precise.

It fixes the following bugs in Precise:
- package-data-downloader hangs forever when attempting to download through cntlm proxy (LP: #1009436)
- Can not play radio streams any more (LP: #659809)
- error when downloading files >2GB (LP: #1031670)
- cntlm does not work at reboot (LP: #825593)
- cntlm gpg error The following signatures were invalid: NODATA 2 (LP: #257210)

[IMPACT]
When behind a corporate proxy requiring NTLM authentication, users are unable to:
- install packages which download external files, e.g. flashplugin-installer and ttf-mscorefonts-installer (worked in Lucid)
- play internet radio streams (worked in Lucid)
- download files larger than 2GB in size
- download and install GPG keys through apt-get and apt-add-repository

[Regression Potential]
Minimal: cntlm has no dependants and no dependencies besides libc6
