Frustrating... :\Indeed. I'm reaching a bit here but how about checking with a UA that's meant to be a standards facist? I'm thinking the likes of svn (via libneon) or links or wget, those kinds of command line clients. Googling this issue doesn't shed much light :( Iit would help to see a dump of the actual headers sent on the wire, just in case apache's somehow mangling it. There was a link to the wiki page containing several ways to watch those in an earlier post.
Alright, I just tried svn but no luck - it doesn't decode the realm name and neither does elinks.
I couldn't find a way to show the realm with wget. Letting wget dump the response shows that the header looks just fine: WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="=?utf-8?B?5pel5pys6aaZ5aCC?="As far as I understand those two RFCs, that's exactly how it's supposed to look.
