Bug description:  php loosing local session.save_path

Description:
------------
Hi,

I want to report that PHP 5.2.5 loose the local session.save_path. I set
it with session_save_path() but just after, when I look at its value, it
contains the master value instead of the value just setted.

This happens after a short period of time. (Just after restrating apache 
everything works fine).

It is a big security problem in my opinion.

System :
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3 (Taroon Update 8)
- PHP 5.2.5
- Apache/2.0.46

Reproduce code:
---------------
// master value is /home/.tmp

$new = '2;0777;web/tmp';
session_save_path($new);
echo session_save_path();


Expected result:
----------------
2;0777;web/tmp

Actual result:
--------------
/home/.tmp
