Since I'm inquisitive like that, I wanted to see if setting cookies and
redirecting at the same time would actually work. I don't know if it's
legal or not, but Navigator doesn't have any problems with it. I whipped up
a quick perl script to do the test, and just did a really simple print() of
some cobbled-together HTTP headers. No modules or anything. Worked like a
champ. Request logs follow.
So, to make a long story short (too late!), it's CF's fault. Add it to the
bug list.
