I don't see this getting a v1.3T specific fix and we've fixed this on v2.1-targeted trunk in bug 1034227, so I'm duping forward to that, even though the underlying problems are fundamentally quite different.

If someone can justify blocker status for this (seems edge-casey, and many activities will cause us to regenerate/ignore the cookie cache), it is appropriate to reopen this bug rather than doing something on the bugging I'm duping forward to.
