Seeing the same issue on FreeBSD 4.9 with PHP 4.3.9 and Apache 1.3.33.

I can confirm that this bug is still present on Apache 1.3.X with PHP
4.3.10. Today i had some Problems, after Apache restart it works well
(but how long?)... Thankyou.

This isn't just on Freebsd - we're seeing this on all our
Linux servers after upgrade -> 4.3.10 (big webhosting
provider in Sweden). A few users are setting
session.save_handler to 'user' with ini_set(); this sticks
and overrides the default ('files'), resulting in broken
sessions for all the other users on the servers.
Temporary solution by using auto_prepend_file in php.ini to
include something like:
<?php
ini_set('session.save_handler', 'files');
?>
seems to work (just tried it, keeping fingers crossed).
This is a critical bug since the security issues in 4.3.9
make a downgrade impossible.

I am trying to set the session.save_handler back to files manually, but
consider the need to do this (assuming it works) to be a bug - it should
default back to this, not stick in a process with the previous status.
I am encountering this problem now at two different hosting companies,
and never had this problem before they upgraded to 4.3.10
