Oh, that sucks! I just confirmed it and its simply a sourceforge bug/error.

To specify authentication "credentials" to w3af, you have two ways:
- Use the proxy tool and a browser to get a valid cookie, and then add
that cookie to the scanning process by configuring the http-settings,
cookieJarFile parameter.

- Use the discovery.spiderMan plugin. This plugin acts as a proxy, and
lets you navigate the target site and authenticate to it. After
closing spiderMan, the authentication credencials will be used through
the whole w3af scan.
