Hi Anders,

This problem has been reported in the past. The PASSCODE attribute was 
not handled and I thought it would be a lot of work to implement. After 
reviewing the Xauth RFC draft, it turned out to be a lot simpler that I 
had initially anticipated.

Can you please give the following build a try. If it works, I'll add the 
changes to 2.1.5 before release. Its kind of a hack, but its only a few 
lines worth of hack :)
