When a custom script is used to read/write sessions, and an exit is called in the middle of a script, the session write routine never gets called -- even though when using the internal routines, it does.

This makes scripts that use Header redirects semi-useless, since they can't do 'exit;' to get out of the script as soon as the header is sent.

I bypassed this problem, for now by doing a 

do {


...


} while(0);

and using 'break'; to jump out of the script.. but shouldn't the internal handler act the same as the 'user defined' handlers?  if 'exit' causes the internal-files handler to save the session, the user-defined one should run, as well...

They get called, but you cannot output text from there.
