Actually most browsers can handle receiving a cookie and being redirected in the same response. I have several applications that do this and I have no problems in later versions of IE, Mozilla, Netscape, or Opera (all that I can test with). I would wager that the original poster is using IIS, and I would also wager that they are running PHP in CGI mode, not ISAPI mode. IIS has a bug that occurs when a CGI program tries to set a cookie and redirect in the same response (detailed in Microsoft Knowledge Base article Q176113), but there is a workaround. I sent a post to this list back in August of last year which details the workaround: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general&m=102929828515647&w=2 If the original post isn't using IIS, then I'm not sure what's happening.
