BTW, so far as that goes: it's just a weak anti-bot measure.
If you try it in Firefox you'll get an explanation:

        A username and password are being requested by
        https://www.postgresql.org. The site says: "Please authenticate
        with user archives and password antispam"

Unfortunately, we've found that most other browsers don't present that
message :-(
