Description:
------------
I have this code:

session_start();

$_SESSION['myvariable'] = 'Hi all';
$temp = $_SESSION['myvariable'];

session_unset();
session_destroy();

echo $temp;

The output is null.

The variable $temp is not valid more. I think this is a bug because is assigned by value and not by reference.

register_globals is on

Reproduce code:
---------------
session_start();

$_SESSION['myvariable'] = 'Hi all';
$temp = $_SESSION['myvariable'];

session_unset();
session_destroy();

echo $temp;

Expected result:
----------------
Hi all

Actual result:
--------------
null

This is not a bug. I have used session_unset and session_destroy all together.

Not a bug, so we mark it bogus.
