I get this too, but I assumed is was related to my php upgrade to 4.0.3.
Which php version do you use?
I sent a report to php-dev (no reply) and Chuck. He suggested that these
might be session files, or that php4 sessions were automaticallly enabled.
This is where we got stuck, more or less. I append my session.* settings
from php.ini for comparison (I never changed any of these IIRC). The only
session.* value in php 4.0.3's php.ini different from my old config
is session.use_trans_sid = 1.
session.save_handler = files
session.save_path = /tmp
session.use_cookies = 1
session.name = PHPSESSID
session.auto_start = 0
session.cookie_lifetime = 0
session.cookie_path = /
session.cookie_domain =
session.serialize_handler = php
session.gc_probability = 1
session.gc_maxlifetime = 1440
session.referer_check =
session.entropy_length = 0
session.entropy_file =
; session.entropy_length = 16
; session.entropy_file = /dev/urandom
session.cache_limiter = nocache
session.cache_expire = 180
