Hrm.  I don't monkey around with the userdb code, so i couldn't have
changed anything in the perl code that would cause that to break.  And i
see that $Session->{logged_in} does get set at the end of
&Vend::UserDB::login, at least in 5.2 and 5.3.  If that's always been
the case, then there's something weird going on.  At least in some of
the older foundation-based catalogs -- that's where i found i had to
work around it.  In the newer sites, i just used what always works for
me.
