Well, the best way would be to apply the following patch to
radiusd/radius.c:

         switch (radreq->request->code) {
         case RT_ACCESS_REQUEST:


and then to use the following rewrite function:

integer
fake_name()
{
        if (!*%[User-Name] || User-Name = "")
           %[User-Name] = "fake-user-name";
        return 0;
}
