If netrc entry has password with empty login, use it for any username. Example: .netrc: machine example.com password 123456 curl -vn http://user@example.com/ Fix it by initializing state_our_login to TRUE, and reset it only when finding an entry with the same host and different login.

I'm not sure how to add tests for this. |

I'm personally a bit in doubt of this feature, because it implicates that a default user password is a usable approach, whereas in reality, this is a security nightmare. |
