AFAIK Yum does very little with that- it just appends relative
URL and passes full URL to libcurl.  user/pass parsing is certainly
done there, but I'm not 100% sure Yum does not mangle the baseurl
part in some way, and don't have EL5 at hands atm.

Try replacing the ':' between user and pass with '%3a', maybe
that helps.
