I guess that the problem could be that there is no record of the user in
the userinfo database, and so things that try to set values for the user
fail. Although I'm not sure how this could result in a password error.
What is the error message exactly?
A change like this might fix it. This tries to detect a new http auth
user and adds a userdb entry for the user. (Sorry about the formatting.)
