Yep, what bug are you running into?  Remember you have session_start() on
the next page for it to be there.

This isn't a bug in PHP, it's actually in adherance with HTTP
standards (and current browser standards).  Prior to doing a header()
redirect, you have to force the cookie to be written with
session_write_close().
