Works OK for me. what does 
tail -f /var/log/http/access|error reveal?

wget localhost/admin/server-status
127.0.0.1 - - [29/Aug/2008:11:34:37 -0400] "GET /admin/server-status HTTP/1.0" 
401 657 "-" "Wget/1.10.2"

wget --user=xxx --password=xxx localhost/admin/server-status
127.0.0.1 - rion [29/Aug/2008:11:35:49 -0400] "GET /admin/server-status 
HTTP/1.0" 200 2891 "-" "Wget/1.10.2"

Also, FWIW:
 tcpdump -s 1500 -i lo -vvxX port 80

Hope this helps.

Yer Pal,
Rion
