Bug description: Cookies & booleans
Description:
------------
I was attempting to set a cookie using a boolean. TRUE works correctly as
1 but setting it FALSE would not save a cookie at all.
Reproduce code:
---------------
setcookie("name",FALSE,time()+60*60);
if you print_r($_COOKIE); it won't display name as being in the $_COOKIE
array but if you
setcookie("name",TRUE,time()+60*60);
it lists name == 1 in $_COOKIE
Expected result:
----------------
If it's a by design issue it might be a good idea to include this in the
docs stating not to use booleans with cookies.
