Maybe not the answer you're looking for. When I'm using private repos, I
use ssh keys for authentication, which works without any issues with
bitbake.

If you need a buildserver to access the private repos, I'd guess that
using ssh-agent together with keys with an empty passphrase will be just
as secure as adding the password to the SRC_URI.

Cheers,
Anders
