Description:
------------
After upgrading php from 5.2.9 to 5.2.10, login to phpMyAdmin 2.11.9.5 (with auth_type=cookie) does not work any more (both CGI and FCGI). It always reverts to the login screen, including the message "Cookies must be enabled past this point" (normally only shown initially), but NOT the message "Error #1045 - Access denied for user" (normally shown with authentication errors).
Although this has so far been the only application where I found malfunction and I cannot pinpoint the source of this behaviour, I think this is an important bug.
Compilation was done with Sun Studio/Forte 7 in the same way as for previous php5 versions (separately for CGI and FCGI). As I noticed that a new CFLAGS option "-xmemalign=8s" had been introduced in 5.2.10, I recompiled without this option for testing, but without any effect. Also I undid the changes of 5.2.10 in sapi/cgi/cgi_main.c concerning the CGI environment, again without effect. Using mysqli instead of mysql also did not help (in fact, it seems that no authentication connection to MySQL was attempted at all). As I use MySQL 4.1.22, I cannot test with phpMyAdmin 3.x, with requires MySQL 5.x.

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php5.2-latest.tar.gz
 
For Windows:

  http://windows.php.net/snapshots/

This is likely because the year in the cookie is \"0\". This is only an issue on big-endian systems, and should be fixed in CVS>

Yes, the bug is fixed in snapshot php5.2-200907060830, thanks a lot!
However, I do not like using snapshots for a production web server and rather stay with 5.2.9.
