Well, that could be - they export the same public API. But if You look
close to the session4 in the phplib4 folder, You will see that the
file consists of many lines from session3 class commented out, with
some plugs for php4 session support. It uses the old-fashion serialize
(instead of PHP4 serialize, which is much much better). It does not
make use of session setup functions from the php4 module for setting up cache
control, cookies behaviour, etc.
Just compare the session4 classes in session/ & phplib4/ to see the
changes. The session4.inc in the session folder was designed with maximum php4
session module usage in mind and session3 public API compatibility (we could
not save all the things that are present in the session3, like $sess->in & $sess->pt,
but it is only because it could not be achieved without messing the things up).

Yes. The only file that was intended to be used with the
session4_custom, is session4.inc from the session folder.
