[Zope-CMF] Problem installing Plone

[seb bacon]

I think this might be because you have a 'portal_skin' cookie from
another CMF version, such as the default CMF install: when you install
plone, your portal_skin cookie is pointing to an invalid skin name.

Perhaps plone should name its portal_skin cookie differently? (e.g.
plone_skin)?
