  Yes.  See 'src/main/auth.c'.

  If you supply a User-Password from a back-end ('users' file, SQL,
etc), and the request has a User-Password or CHAP-Password, then
'Auth-Type := Local' is assumed.

  I think it would be prudent to add a warning message about this
misconfiguration, since it may change in the future.
