In OPAC, if I am an anonymous user and the system preference casAuthentication
is set, each time I reach a new page, the CGISESSID cookie gets a new value,
causing the previous session to be destroyed and a new one to be created.
This bug comes from an error in checkauth (C4/Auth.pm), where a missing test
cause this strange behavior.
Also found a similar issue in check_api_auth, which cause C4::Service->init to
fail if the syspref is set.
For example, I was unable to change a syspref value when casAuthentication was
set.
Patch will follow.
