Ok, we figured it out.

The cookie path was wrong.  We were using the default value ( "/horde" ), and
even though I'd tried using an Alias in apache from /horde-3.0-rc1 to /horde,
and creating a symlink on the filesystem, requests for /horde/ would become
requests for /horde-3.0-rc1/, and then the cookie wouldn't match.  So, the
solution for us was to either rename the horde-3.0-rc1 directory to "horde" or
to change the cookie path.
