Short answer: Not at the moment, no. Long answer: I think the only way we could identify 401 errors is to set the environment variable "LC_ALL" of the wget process to "C" (i.e. standard strings) and grep for "Auth.*failed". If the wget process returns with a non-zero return value, chances are high that the download failed because of that. Would be a bit hack-ish, but I guess if you've subscribed to some authentication-only podcast, you should know so anyway. A dialog box informing the user about the failed download would be nice, though.
