WebTest should send cookies in redirects. I even added a new test case
to its test suite to verify it and it passes on my computer. On the
other hand WebTest depends on LWP to send cookies correctly so it
might be a bug in the version of LWP you have. Try to upgrade
LWP. Also you can try to take CVS version of WebTest and run its 'make
test' - if your local setup has problem it should catch it.
