Thanks cash for the tip. I updated those files, but something make me
scratch my head...

I need to authenticate the user, first with simple GET (without HMAC).

When I use:
- expose_function(... , 'GET', false, false), user is not
authenticated,
- expose_function(... , 'GET', false, true), it returns an error,
because user is not authenticated even with username and password
parameters.

But when looking at the usage of pam_auth_userpass($credentials) in
api.php, it looks like it is never called with the right user/password
credentials.

My question is : do I need to correct this ? and initiate credentials
(from $_GET or $_POST) in pam_auth_userpass(), or in the caller
function ?
