When using the 'memcache only' session handler. it is possible to  
override the php.ini's 'session.gc_maxlifetime' parameter.

Unfortunately, the variable set in config/conf.xml uses  
'track_lifetime', where SessionHandler/Storage/Memcache.php looks for  
the variable 'track_lt'. Therefor, the SessionHandler will always  
fallback to the 'session.gc_maxlifetime' value from php.ini (which  
might be a lot smaller).

Either conf.xml should be changed to use  
$conf[sessionhandler][params][track_lt] (which fixed the problem for  
me) or the SessionHandler should be changed to use 'track_lifetime'  
(as advertised in the constructor's comments).
