It did thus far, at least when pressing send/receive I can now see the updates.
Thanks, Sergiu!

Other than configuring the feed reader to use a certain username and 
password, you must also alter a bit the RSS URL by appending 
&basicauth=1 as a query string parameter.

For example, for the blog feed, use:
http://xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/Blog/GlobalBlogRss?xpage=plain&basicauth=1
instead of:
http://xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/Blog/GlobalBlogRss?xpage=plain

Does this solve your problem?
