Not me, but I just spent a couple of minutes looking at the code.

The following patch is completely untested, but it may be worth a go:

--- UserDB.pm   15 Jan 2007 18:45:45 -0000      2.51
+++ UserDB.pm   6 Mar 2007 21:43:34 -0000

                }
 
-               username_cookies($self->{USERNAME}, $pw) 
+               username_cookies($self->{PASSED_USERNAME} || $self->{USERNAME}, $pw) 
                        if $Vend::Cfg->{CookieLogin};
 
                if ($self->{LOCATION}{LAST} ne 'none') {

You will need to clean out your MV_USERNAME cookie after patching.
