Description:
------------
With the code below, the expected function is that a returning user
with the 'lfp_guid' cookie will be recognized when the cookie is read.
However, the lfp_guid is never found  again after creation and a new
lfp_guid is created at the beginning of each session. 


Reproduce code:
---------------
class lfp_user {
        var $guid;
        function lfp_user() {
                if (isset($_COOKIE['lfp_guid'])) {
                        $this->guid =$_COOKIE['lfp_guid'];
                } else {
                        $this->guid = md5(uniqid(rand(0,1)*100,true));
                        
setcookie("lfp_guid",$this->guid,time()+60*60*24*365*2,"","127.0.0.1",true);
                }

                echo "LFP_USER.constructor: _COOKIE['lfp_guid']==
'".$_COOKIE['lfp_guid']."'<br>";
                echo "LFP_USER.constructor: GUID == ".$this->guid."<br>";
                
                //echo isset($_COOKIE['lfp_guid'])."<br>";
        } // end constructor
} // end class
session_start();
if (empty($_COOKIE['PHPSESSID'])) {                     
                $_SESSION['lfp_user'] = new lfp_user(); 
}       
// kill session and reload page again to see nothing in cookie:
print_r($_COOKIE);

Expected result:
----------------
Since the lfp_guid cookie is actually set on the user's machine,
$_COOKIE would access this list and store it in the new object.


Actual result:
--------------
A new lfp_guid is created and set on the user's machine no matter what.
