It would seem that this is a bug in PHP
(http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=38833). Not only that, but the
maintainers of PHP are unwilling to fix it
(http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=37926)!

IMO, this is not a "documentation bug", as some have tried to suggest,
but a flaw in the implementation of the superglobals, or at the very
least in $_SESSION. I have made a contribution to the tracker to reflect
my viewpoint.
