Ok... well... all was going well with Apache2 and PHP5 on the new dev
environment, so I upgraded the production server... and the same
problem is still occurring! I am so confused! I didn't do anything
custom with the Apache2 or PHP5 configs on production; I used the
recommended settings. :(

The grep -i showed some Session->valid and Session->read calls but the
only Session->write or Session->delete calls were in d_auth.php.

What's more is that I'm using this Users/login action as the default /
route for this project so this issue is occurring without the user
having to navigate to any other pages/actions at all... :-/

I'm off to search trac.cakephp.org now but this is crazy. The only
difference between dev and prod now is dev has mysql5 and prod is
still mysql4 (I am using cake_sessions in the database - I'll try
switching back to files, see if it helps).

Thanks again Diether,
-volve
