I guess this bug needs to be fixed somehow but I'd probably just not allow 
it to be defined as global. The whole reason for making it an auto-global 
was so that it'll be easy to use. People know (and will know) that 
$_SESSION is a global. I think your explicit marking of it as a global is 
not a good idea and doesn't really give you anything. Why not just add a 
comment if you really feel it is needed?
