It's bug:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-emacs/2012-07/msg00674.html

Not sure if that fix is in 24.2, but surely the latest pretest for 24.3
should work (which is pretty stable).

I'm still wondering why it didn't work at the beginning. I mean, even if
you had your Google username set in some .netrc or .authinfo, the
password should still work?
