Hi Arthur,
I have answers to some of your questions:

The language settings still need some work, I think the only way is to  
set the DEFAULT_LANGUAGE in index.php. UserPreferences has a language  
setting but it doesn't work reliably for me.

PhpWiki used to have HTTP authentication at one time. As far as I know  
it was removed in favour of the current login scheme so this must be  
leftover code (sorry).

This is definitely a bug in 1.3.4, thanks for reporting it. The fix is  
available now in CVS.
