I found several other people having the same problem with 5.1.6
Most suggest that php.ini
   default_charset = "iso-8859-1"
will help. not for me.

php session handling is just very complicated in 5.1.6
see http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=16263
and [Session] in php.ini:

session.save_path = "0;777;f:/prog/php/phpwiki-dev/db/516"

; Instead of storing all the session files in
; /path, what this will do is use subdirectories N-levels deep, and
; store the session data in those directories.  This is useful if you
; or your OS have problems with lots of files in one directory, and is
; a more efficient layout for servers that handle lots of sessions.
;
; NOTE 1: PHP will not create this directory structure automatically.
;         You can use the script in the ext/session dir for that
;         purpose.

Argh! So you cannot just say 1;777;
You have to create the subtree manually beforehand.
For me the session files are locked most of the time, even if the apache 
process is killed.
