Thanks for the patch Kevin.

It looks like the real username is being set in MV_USERNAME cookie  
even with an indirect_login setup. I propose keeping that behavior  
the way it is and skipping the indirect login query if we got the  
USERNAME from the MV_USERNAME cookie. The following patch  
accomplishes that. What do you think?
