Mike Millson commented on JBWEB-161:
------------------------------------

Test case:
1) Deploy attached war.
2) Run attached JMeter test that sends a cookie named "mgm" with value "today=friday" to http://localhost:8080/testbox/servlet/ReadCookies, which prints out the cookie value.
3) The JMeter output file 1.html shows the value as just "today":
Name:mgm Value:today=friday Version:0 
4) Apply the patch and run the same test. You get this output:
Name:mgm Value:today=friday Version:0

> With Netscape Version0 cookies the equals sign is a valid value.
> Currently if you send a cookie with an equals sign in the value, the value will get chopped off at the equal sign. For example, if you send a cookie called "mgm" with a value of "today=friday" then the value will be read as "today".
