I have solved this problem after a bit of dedicated debugging and
googling...

http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.session-start.php#50236

Our development server had an underscore in the name which is technically
against DNS rules.  The whole thing works fine except that IE will not
accept cookies from the site, so session_start() never succeeds...

Removing the underscores solves all and reminds me to reacquaint myself with
my old friend: the hyphen.
