I investigated the problem and there are 3 solutions:
- Follow the 302 redirect provided
- Fetch a page first to get a session token and provide that along
with the username and password data
- Use the API for CentralAuth sites, because I fixed this problem in
the API yesterday.

I added the use_api_login config option. That should make the login work again for SUL bots. I have also made a change in the MediaWiki core which skips the cookie check that is causing this problem. If it gets past brion, also the regular login will work again.
