 * The google-analytics-for-wordpress plugin includes the pluggable.php which creates
   the function wp_authenticate.
    The alternative login plugin wpDirAuth (this may
   be just one of many) requires wp_authenticate to be still overwritable. google-
   analytics-for-wordpress seems to load first, no matter what. Since the plugin
   load order is out of scope for the user, is there another way to achieve whatever
   gets achieved with pluggable.php?

 * This is solved in the latest update of the plugin. Please update to version 5.3.
