Comment:

 Bumped into this in a project today, and have taken the liberty of
 reopening the ticket.

 I'm writing a plugin that automatically logs a user out after a certain
 period of inactivity. To do this, I'm hooking into "admin_init", and if
 the user has been inactive for x minutes, I call wp_logout(). For this to
 work properly, all code running after "admin_init" should run as if the
 user is not logged in. Among other things, this will trigger the login
 modal in wp-admin.

 Considering that I just explicitly logged out the user,
 is_user_logged_in() especially should return false. Other functions that
 are affected are get_current_user() and wp_auth_check().

 Sebastian.pisula's patch works flawlessly for me on 5.0.3. It makes
 wp_logout() do what the function's name and description suggest.

 Please consider accepting this patch.
