Firefox 3.0.6 not able to read Cookie (breaks MUCkl/JWChat with HTTP Polling)

Firefox as of version 3.0.6 seems to not allow reading cookies from HTTP headers when doing AJAX requests. As a consequence JSJaC’s HTTP Polling backend can’t work correctly anymore and breaks usage of MUCkl and JWChat with this version of Firefox. If your site is affected please consider switching to HTTP Binding (aka BOSH) which should fix this issue.
HTTP Binding has been designed specifically to address issues with constrained clients not capable of reading HTTP header cookies.

    Can you please direct me to instructions on getting JWChat to work with ejabberd using HTTP Binding (aka BOSH)?

    Firefox breaks HTTP-POLLING But IE7 breaks HTTP-BIND

    IE7
    Code: 500
    Type: cancel
    Condition: service-unavailable

    Works like a charm on FF 3.0.6
