Hurray! I don't know what you did, but this fixed my yet-to-be-closer-
examined problem with Thin: That login on certain Rails apps didn't
work due to session or cookie data not being set/being deleted/being
ignored. With the previous release login in a standard installation of
Beast worked, but for a standard installation of RadiantCMS it didn't.

Now it works for both, so some sort of cookie/session/header problem
must have been resolved. Thanks!

Best regards,
Casper Fabricius
