I've seen this happen when creating views in combination with
PlonePAS. The issue is that the user authentication hasn't taken place
yet at traversal time (when the view is instanciated). Moving the
user-dependant code to render time (view.__call__ and methods used in
the view template or somesuch) the problem is circumvented.
