OK, well, Magnus already knows about this, but since you ask!  :-)

I am logging into my Larry_Sanger account.  Rather, I am automatically
logged into that account, and even when I log out, and then log in using
"Larry Sanger" instead of "Larry_Sanger", when I go to any other page
other than the login page, I am shown logged in as Larry_Sanger and when
I'm logged in that way I don't have sysop rights.

So the point is, when I try to log in one way, I have rights, and when I
try to log in another way, I don't.

Maybe what you could do is just change the user_name with
user_rights=is_sysop to 'Larry_Sanger' from 'Larry Sanger'.
