I have been looking at a single-sign-on for phpBB and MediaWiki once 
I've installed some extensions (phpBB/MW integration, phpBB restrict 
usernames).

If you look here: http://svn.wikimedia.org/doc/
and specifically the LoginForm class: 
http://svn.wikimedia.org/doc/classLoginForm.html

Maybe there's a way to pass the username and password to a function and 
have you log in. If that's possible, it should work if you pass the data 
to multiple functions.
