I was trying this out and my conclusion is it does not.  I'm using
10.6.8, and despite checking
the "Proxy server requires password" box in the UI, the SOCKS
negotiation received supports
anonymous connections only.  I don't know what APIs Safari is using or
where the actual problem
is, merely that the end-to-end support doesn't seem right.
