Correct.  The CAS client maintains its own session after the initial 
authentication.  According to the mod_auth_cas README:

* CAS single sign out is currently not functional and disabled.  It
   is only safe to use in the case where all requests are GET and not
   POST (the module inadvertently 'eats' some content of the POST
   request while determining if it should process it as a SAML logout
   request).


The docs for the SLO option:

Directive:      CASSSOEnabled
Default:        Off
Description:    If enabled, this activates support for Single Sign Out within 
the CAS
                protocol.  Please note that this feature is currently 
experimental and
                may mangle POST data.


So, you might be able to use SLO with mod_auth_cas if your application does not 
use POST requests.  Otherwise, perhaps a different CAS client could be used, 
such as the PHP or Java client.

        Andy
