The cookies break for me if I go to lwn.net, but they work if I go to www.lwn.net. Maybe it depends on where you were when you got the cookie...

Most curious.

I had *always* gone to www.lwn.net, until I found out that I couldn't reliably log in from there.

What it had looked like to me was that the cookies were for lwn.net, not .lwn.net... and my suggestion had been to redirect www. to the base domain. I don't see that that's happened, but I now realize they've probably been to busy to fix it; it's not exactly a class-1 bug.
