Problem Solved ... ;)
(yes I am an idiot, but keep that under your hat)

I had the Apache::AuthCookieDBI's
PerlSetVar WhatEverDomain variable set to
PerlSetVar WhatEverDomain jeff.foo.com

then I would make my request to http://localhost/LOGIN
and the domain check would fail.
That is why the cookie would not get set.
