PHP Bug Type:     SimpleXML related
Bug description:  SimpleXML objects can't be stored in sessions.

Description:
------------
SimpleXML objects can't be stored in sessions and in turn, objects which
contain SimpleXML objects also can't be stored.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

session_start();

$_SESSION['xml'] = simplexml_load_file(YOUR_XML_FILE);

?>

Expected result:
----------------
I expect the simplexml object to be loaded as a session variable, to work,
and to persist while the session is active.

Actual result:
--------------
If you first run the code above in a browser on a valid xml file, nothing
happens and it looks like it works ... but if you hit refresh or go to a
page which re-starts the session, you will see this:

Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Node no longer exists
in index.php on line 3

The above warning line will repeat over and over for a while ... your
simplexml object also won't work.
