Apologies for delurking ourside my normal domain, but the above 
test doesn't make much sense to me.  AIUI, $Version is supposed to 
describe the protocol (headers), not the individual cookies.  
Here's the 2109 BNF:

   cookie          =       "Cookie:" cookie-version
                           1*((";" | ",") cookie-value)


There's no universally-accepted way to mix Netscape cookies 
with the RFC-based ($Version=1) cookies within the same HTTP 
request.  At some point the IETF tried to produce an errata
document to address this, but IIRC failed to achieve consensus
on a resolution.
