I have the authentication code somewhat working as a C module for Apache
right now. It doesn't generate the data needed for getCurrentUser() but
does do the actual authentication and sets SLASH_USER (and REMOTE_USER
for
that matter).
I have some sites that are halfway between running bender and homegrown
code 
at the moment, and this made my transition a bit easier.
