PHP Bug Type:     Session related
Bug description:  session_unregister does not work when followed by header("Location:
...")

When followed by a 

header("Location: ...");

statement session_unregister does not get properly executed.

Reproduce: Take any script that has a session_unregister in it, put a
header("Location: ...") under this statement, and see if unregistered var
gets deleted from session-storage (it does not)
Now put a session_write_close() in front of the header-statement and watch
it work properly.

If you have trouble reproducing this please don't hesitate to contact me.

My setup:

User-Defined Session-Handler: pgsql_session_handler latest version

PHP compiled with:
./configure' '--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql' '--with-pgsql'
'--with-ldap'
'--enable-trans-sid' '--with-gd'

Exact same setup worked with php4.0.6, did not work after upgrade to
4.1.2
