Django test client can't store cookies after upgrade to Python 2.6.5

Description

After upgrading to Python 2.6.5, Django test client is storing malformed cookies, thus not allowing to test anything session-related

The error is relatively hard to track, as no exception is raised by DB session backend.
File-based session backend raises

SuspiciousOperation: Invalid characters (directory components) in session key

It looks like the error is caused by the change to Cookie module introduced here: http://svn.python.org/view/python/trunk/Lib/Cookie.py?r1=71029&r2=74647

Not sure if this change affects other libraries.

Seems like a duplicate of #12720 that was fixed in [12343] (trunk) and [12344] (1.1.X branch, post 1.1.1)
