Description:
------------
PHP 5.1.2 does not print session_id automatically into pages code. The session.use_trans_sid stoped working after install PHP 5.1.2. Despite php.ini has session.use_trans_sid=1, and even the program has a line ini_set('session.use_trans_sid', 1);

Reproduce code:
---------------
php.ini
session.use_trans_sid=1

code
ini_set('session.use_trans_sid', 1);

Expected result:
----------------
<a href="page.php?PHPSESSION=XXXXXXXXXXX">
<form method="post" action="auditores_form_delete.php?PHPSESSION=XXXXXXXXXXX">

Actual result:
--------------
<a href="page.php>
<form method="post" action="auditores_form_delete.php>

PHP does not print session id automatically

It won't be printed if it's available through other means, in this case in the cookie. This is expected behaviour.

PHP 5.1.2 does not assign the correct value to the constant SID.

I did a test:

####  Origin page ####
---------------------------
<?php
// Origin page:
session_start();

$_SESSION['Perfil'] = hola;

echo "<pre>";
print_r($_SESSION);
echo "\nconstant SID: ".SID;
echo "\nconstant(\"SID\") ". constant("SID");
if (defined('SID')) {
   echo "\nSID is defined";
}
echo "\n";
echo "</pre>";
?>
<a href="pba1.php">Destination page</a>
--------------------------------------

As espected SID echoes PHPSESSID=5c2a8e480f4c0b649850fb6da527a6ab

And the constant seems to be declared.

But in the destination page SID echoes none value (blank). The constant seems to be declared using: 

if (defined('SID')) {
   echo "\nSID is defined";
}

#### Destination page code ####
<?php
// Destination page

session_start();

echo "<pre>";

print_r($_SESSION);

define("SID", session_name() ."=".session_id());

echo "\nconstant SID value: ".SID;

echo "\nQuering by constant(\"SID\") ". constant("SID");


if (defined('SID')) {
   echo "\nSID is defined";
}

echo "</pre>";

echo "\n";


?>
<a href="pba.php">Origin page</a>

As consequence the session is not transfered via SID.

Constants are not carried through requests.
