Here's the contents of the session file,
immediately after execution of my first
test script test_bug1.php, from versions
4.2.2 and 4.3.0:
session file from 4.2.2:
var1|s:11:"INITIALIZED";var2|s:11:"INITIALIZED";
session file from 4.3.0:
var1|s:11:"INITIALIZED";var2|R:1;

It took me a while to track this down...
we noticed that when we upgraded a develpment box
from 4.2.3 to 4.3.0, that one of our session vars
was being over-written by another.
It turns out that one was being serialized
to the session as a reference to the other,
but only if the vars were intialized like this:
$var1 = $var2 = "some value";
Consider two scripts, test_bug1.php and test_bug2.php
If you run test_bug1, and then test_bug2, surprisingly,
the output of test_bug2 will be:
BEFORE:
var1 = 'INITIALIZED'
var2 = 'INITIALIZED'
AFTER:
var1 = 'CHANGED'
var2 = 'CHANGED'
<?php
// test_bug1.php
session_start();
$var1 = $var2 = "INITIALIZED";
session_register("var1","var2");
echo "INIT:<br>\n";
echo "var1 = '$var1'<br>";
echo "var2 = '$var2'<br><p>";
echo "<a href='test_bug2.php'>test_bug2.php</a>";
?>
<?php
// test_bug2.php
session_start();
echo "BEFORE:<br>\n";
echo "var1 = '$var1'<br>\n";
echo "var2 = '$var2'<br><p>\n";
$var2 = "CHANGED";
echo "AFTER:<br>\n";
echo "var1 = '$var1'<br>\n";
echo "var2 = '$var2'<br><p>\n";
$var2 = "EXIT";
?>
