Dired 7.9 bug: bug with efs and dired

I get the following problem when trying to open a remote directory.
When running 

	C-x d /ajenkins@bendigo:

it does not prompt me for a password, but instead tries to log in with
some invalid password.  I have not used efs at all in this emacs
session, so it shouldn't have the password cached, and I don't have a
~/.netrc file.  Also, when I try to use "M-x efs-set-passwd", it
prompts me for the hostname, then the username, but doesn't prompt me
for a password, so I can't even set the correct password manually that
way.

I have used efs with anonymous ftp sites and it worked.
