I am sure that CookieCrumber honours basic authentication
info when it is present. This is necessary for FTP and WebDAV
(as well as XMLRPC).

This means: when your XMLRPC request comes with correct basic
authentication, it should work. If there is no basic authentication
or user/password are not correct, "CookieCrumber" will return
a login dialog page which (of course) is not understood by XMLRPC.
