One of my users complained (bitterly) that when he arrives,
unauthenticated, at his Trac, instead of being directed to a "login"
screen he gets a cryptic message about not having the right privileges
to view the page.  I know he should just get over it, but I have to
admit he's right; it's a bad user interface.  That message only makes
sense on Tracs that can be used without logging in.  Is there
something I can do about this?

Of course.  Assuming you're using apache, change the Auth Required scope to
include the root URL, instead of just the /login path.

Ie change something that looks like this:
<LocationMatch "/tracsrv/test/login">
 AuthType Basic
 Require valid-user
</LocationMatch>

to this:
<LocationMatch "/tracsrv/test/">
 AuthType Basic
 Require valid-user
</LocationMatch>
