Thanks.  FWIW, I've been doing basically what I described before in the
meantime (the goal again was to use NTLM to authenticate to the SOAP
server).

    1.  Download the WSDL file "by hand", and passing it to
        SOAP::Lite->service as a file:// URL.

    2.  Tell the LWP used for real SOAP calls to use NTLM with this
        horribly code:

        $soap->proxy($url,  # this just needs the right hostname
            credentials => [ $host_port, '',
                             '\\' . $windows_username, $windows_password ],
            conn_cache => LWP::ConnCache->new,
        );

I again look forward to getting rid of this hack with the new release!
