I reverted back to 5.0.25 and it sorta works. Using Netscape on linux.
5.5.7 does not work for me.

Now, however, when I attempt to access a resource protected by BASIC
HTTP authentication. It DOES NOT prompt me for credentials, but rather
forwards to my error-page regardless. Yuck! That's not right either!

I only want it to forward to <error-page> on a code 401 _when the login
attempt fails_ and it should prompt the user for that, which it doesn't.
