Did cookie behavior with POSTing change?

From: rob--- via curl-library <curl-library_at_cool.haxx.se>

I've been using cURL for a long time to make automated posts to the phpBB3
forum. Recently, it stopped working. The forum software has not been
changed, so I think this is something in the cURL behavior. I can still
successfully log in to the forum using cURL, and read anything (with GET
requests). But POSTing fails, with a message from the forum that I need to
be logged in. I'm using the same curl handle (with cookie jar) for the GET
and POST requests, which used to work like a charm. From phpinfo(), my
current cURL version is 7.38.0, and the php build date was March 2 (which
may be when things stopped working - I don't recall exactly). I do not know
what the cURL version was before this.

In any case, I'm trying to get back in business, and would appreciate any
pointers as to how to go about this.

Thanks!

Rob
