I'm not sure.  Sam, could you take a look at this (there's a patch in the
bug)?  I'm not current with the state of anonymous authentication and the
requirements for FAST.

My assumption would have been that an anonymous ticket wouldn't be useful
for FAST purposes since it's not backed by a strong key, but it may very
well be that I'm misunderstanding FAST.
