API authentication and content type

I've been trying to make use of the API to import Projects into our Redmine installation and have been dealing with the following:

A. when 'Require authentication' in on, i can't authenticate against Redmine using HTTP Basic Auth

B. when 'Require authentication' in off, i get a "HTTP/1.1 406 Not Acceptable" response.

My PHP code is:

require_once ('ActiveResource.php');

class Project extends ActiveResource {
    var $site = 'http://***:***@****/';
    var $request_format = 'xml'; // REQUIRED!
}

$projects = new Project ();
$projects = $projects->find ('all');
print_r($projects);

Response:

Processing ProjectsController#index to xml (for 85.242.69.190 at 2010-03-03 13:15:54) [GET]
  Parameters: {"format"=>"xml", "action"=>"index", "controller"=>"projects"}
Completed in 8ms (View: 1, DB: 0) | 406 Not Acceptable [http://***/projects.xml]

My setup is:

- Redmine 0.9.3.stable.3521
- ruby 1.8.7 (2009-06-12 patchlevel 174

Rest_api states At the time of writing, the API is only available in trunk (see r3310, r3313), so you won't have any chance to make it work with the current stable, sorry.
