   I noticed that the login cookies were not getting deleted in Safari during logout, and instead new, empty, ones were being created with a slightly different path. This diff fixed the problem for me:

   It's worth noting that a/the symptom of this problem is not being able to log in after loging out, without a 'wrong user/password' error message.
   I had that problem just now on my first WP install, so it was great to find a fix for it so quickly.
