phpMyAdmin won't run -- apparently a PHP bug

I just tried to install phpMyAdmin on my system, and I can't get it to
work. When I tried to run the setup procedure (setup.php) I got the
following message:
Fatal error: session_start() [<a
href='function.session-start'>function.session-start</a>]: Failed to
initialize storage module: user (path: C:\...\Temp\php\session) in
D\...\phpMyAdmin\libraries\session.inc.php on line 86
I set up the config file by hand, then tried to run phpMyAdmin and got
the same error.
I searched for references to the error message on php.net and found a
bug report from which I gather that the cause is actually a PHP bug.
(See the reference to phpMyAdmin in the last message on the page.)
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=32330
I searched the phpMyAdmin bug lists and FAQ, but I did not see any
reference to this.
There must be a workaround for this problem -- if not, phpMyAdmin
would be dead in the water for some significant fraction of users.
Can anyone tell me what it is, or where to look?
The configuration is: OS, Windows XP SP2; Apache, v.2.2.8; PHP,
v.5.2.5; MySQL, v.5.0.51; phpMyAdmin, v.2.11.4.
