I ran into this too, I think I got the impression that after you call 
'suffix' things are set in stone and User-Name/Realm is read-only (in 
the 'request' set of valuepairs); which is fair enough[1].  If you do 
rewrite 'proxy-request:User-Name' you probably will find things work as 
you expect.

[1] later on when mangling other things, you apprieate that mangling the 
	original User-Name/Realm was a Bad Idea(tm) and besides whats 
	the point in calling 'suffix' also :)
