Having this problem again too.
I WAS having this problem with FreeBSD 4.4 / Apache 1.3.27 / PHP
4.3.2.
The problem started happening again a couple days ago...
Seems to be a Heisenbug - ever time I add code to output debug info and
restart apache, the problem seems to have disappeared or moved to a
different website / vhost.
Problem does not seem to happen on all vhosts at the same time...
Just upgraded to PHP 4.3.7
The problem still persists.
I have done all the recommended "fixes" - checking disk space,
permissions, changing storage location, etc. Am currently working on a
db based storage moduel to include on all sites experiencing the
problem as in interrum fix.
Please CC me on any updates.
thanks.

Currently runned workaround via
auto_prepend_file = /etc/httpd/phpinc.php
and in /etc/httpd/phpinc.php
<? session_module_name("files"); ?>

OpenSSL/0.9.7d PHP/4.3.7 mod_auth_pam_external/0.1 FrontPage/5.0.2.2510

phpinfo();
session_start();
?>
Producing

Fatal error: session_start(): Failed to initialize storage module:
user (path: /tmp) in a.php on line 3
Can't say what to do to fix that _STRANGE_ error :/
