+Important Bug Workaround for 2.0.48 and 1.3.29
+
+If you use mod_usertrack with the default
+CookieName (ie, there is no CookieName directive in your config file), then
+you will encounter a bug in 2.0.48 and 1.3.29.
+
+
+The patch that was added to these versions to help prevent false-positive
+matches of the CookieName did not take into account this case, and therefore
+the regular expression that is now used in the matching process will be NULL
+if no CookieName directive was encountered.
+
+This problem will be fixed in both 2.0.49 and 1.3.30 when they are
+released. As a simple workaround in 2.0.48 and 1.3.29, simply add the
+line
+CookieName Apache
+to your config file. (While you're at it, you could pick a more
+meaningful cookie name than "Apache", but any cookie name will do.)
