Hi Julien,

can you give a bug report or a way to duplicate the issue?  What's in
your .authinfo file?  What was the last working Emacs version for this?
What servers (ideally accessible publicly) are you hitting?  I need to
replicate it somehow.

I don't think I've changed anything that could cause this regression,
but I just don't know where to begin hunting.
