I may have misspoken... what I read:

  Requires cookies: browsers without cookie support will never have a valid 
ticket and will therefore never be authorised by mod_auth_tkt. There are no 
current plans to support non-cookie-based authentication.

While true, it does support "basic" auth, I was more thinking along the 
terms of automation where basic authentication is used to access a resource, 
say a curl request, etc. 

If I understand this statement, my curl with basic auth would be "accepted", 
and the response would contain a set-cookie with the token, the access would 
be denied unless I went through multiple steps with curl or some automation 
system to store the cookie, then present it to access the protected 
resource. 

I really should have written in my reply, I need to be able to support 
non-cookie-based authentication using basic auth. 

Sorry for the confusion.
