thanks for reporting this.  i've just made a couple of commits to  
resolve these issues.  if you update to svn trunk you should find  
that the member_approval_workflow will work.

the permission was 'View'.  problem was, member objects that are

anonymous users.  i'm now catching the unauthorized exception so we  
can present our nice "your account is awaiting approval" page to the  
user.
