As I have reported in the message you answered to, this
is only a display problem: I have not discovered a serious
problem -- the problem appears only in the "ConflictError" message.
The two serials have been interchanged.

Until today, I thought this were impossible.
However, today, a colleague reported that he has seen
occurrencies where individual session variables have disappeared
(while others did not). He is has analysed the access logs
and is sure that all session variable have been set.

Thus, almost surely, something is wrong with sessions or
temporary storage. We just do not yet know what.
