Comment (by ryan):

 [8810] removes HTTPOnly for Safari.  We had some weird problems with
 Safari not setting the cookie when testing on wordpress.com.  Looks like
 it was only when setting cookies via remote login, so it might not be
 something a regular WP blog will see.  Disabling for now while I track it
 down.
