<?php

     <the usual pre-session_start() things here..>

     session_set_application_id('someid');
     session_start();

 	$_SESSION['foobar'] = 'foo';
 	$_GLOBAL['someid'] = 'bar';

 	etc.

?>

     Thanks to Marc for mentioning the application id. :)

     It should propably behave so that if the application id
     is not set, then we won't init the $_GLOBAL at all.
