CFMAGIC is only set if you have setDomainCookies set to true in your CFAPPLICATION tag. It's there to allow you to have multiple domains read the same cookies to tie together a session across them. I'd imagine that you (or someone) accidentally removed that line from the CFAPPLICATION tag on the dev server, but didn't publish to the production server.
