cookies.inc.t has this code near line 49:

   /* $p > 8 https:// or http:// */
   if (($p = strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'], $host)) === false || $p > 8) {
       $q_opt .= ' AND s.user_id > 2000000000 ';
   }

I'm trying to understand what that is for. Our authentication process happens on a separate hostname (dev.eclipse.org) than the forum itself (www.eclipse.org). After the authentication process, we redirect the browser to fudforum's index.php/l/ so that fud can load up the session, but it never does since p > 8. Hitting fudforum's "Login" link a second time works, since HTTP_REFERER and $host are now the same machine.

I'm going to remove that snippet of code to fix my own authentication process, but I'm just wondering why you'd want to tack on a condition (AND s.user_id > 2000000000) which is likely never met.
