Out of despair I changed the userAuthenticate to only have one line:
<dtml-return "_.int('1')">

So GUF should always login anyone! But it does not. The log in web form
dialog always reappears.

Could it be something with permissions? 

When I followed GUF walkthrough I did exactly what I was told: For GUF
itself (acl_users), disable all acquisition, and provide "Can Login and
Logout" and "Access Contents" for the "Anonymous" role. That locked me
out of GUF protected folder... So I added an extra step: I gave the
"Manager" role all permissions... this step seems to be neccessary, but
it is not in the README or walkthrough...

And for the GUF-protected folder I did the same extra step of giving the
Manager role all permissions...

Maybe the ZSQL/method placement is at fault?

The "specialrole" is defined at the Zope root folder (because the admin
user is defined at the root folder, and I would not be able to assign
proxy roles otherwise).

All ZSQL methods are inside the GUF-protected folder.
