I too had this problem crop up. I found that setting no_login=1 didn't 
help as later in log_transaction [userdb save] was called, and failed as 
no user was logged in.

To resolve this problem I add [update values] immediately after the 
[userdb new_account ...]. This repopulated the now empty $Values (as a 
result of the autologin) with the submitted $CGI values. This solved the 
problem in my case.
