Truncating Session Table makes site hang indefinitely

Hi all. 

 I've got a custom session middlware built that is simply extending the session base. The only interesting thing this backend is doing is using a different session table than django's stock one -- this is for integration with a pre-existing PHP site we are in the process of migrating away from.

 Everything is working fine, except, I decided to try and truncate the sessions table in order to test something -- to my surprise, I couldn't load the site after that -- it just hung indefinitely.

 If I delete my session cookie, the site loads up no problem. 

 I'm running django 1.5a1 as we aren't scheduled for a public launch on our django code until April. Is this a 1.5 bug? Or is there something messed up with my session middleware? 

 When I try and trace where the error could be coming from, I wind up opening up the django codebase -- I don't believe there are any bugs in my middleware (especially considering it works great until you do something like truncate the sessions table).

PS I did try deleting the session table completely and re-running manage.py syncdb just incase there was some sort of relationship problem, but that doesn't appear to be the case.

Any suggestions much apprecaited. 

Thanks!
