I wrote the following small script :

<?php
$user = "libo";
session_set_cookie_params(time());
session_register ("user");
setcookie ("TestCookie", "lalala", time());
?>

if I do a telnet to port 80 on the machine where the script is save I get the following result:

GET /tests/test.php HTTP/1.1
Host: lala

HTTP/1.1 200 OK

like you can see, the setcookie ("TestCookie", "lalala", time()); is setting the right time while session_set_cookie_params(time()); is setting a really strange time ...

The first parameter is relative to the current time. Hence, common applications use an absolute value like 3600 there, so that the cookie exists for a specific amount of time.
