Lets be clear: Negotiate/Kerberos authenticates the *TCP connection*.
The single one between the client and your first proxy. The
authentication is *invalid* on any other connection the message travels
over.

This is the main way that Negotiate still violates HTTP messaging
requirements.


Now thats out of the way. The username can be passed on to the second
proxy using simpler Basic auth:
 cache_peer ... login=*:foo

Where "foo" is a fake password. The receiving proxy will still need to
perform authentication (with basic_fake_auth helper) to get access to
the username info.
