Have added following to the gerrit change comments

There is a very remote chance that some people are still using 0.6, and
there is a very remote chance that those people don't  have a session
dir.

Should we add in an upgrade script to make it, or just assume that
everybody is using a current version so will have session dir at install
time.

I also think we don't need to bother caring whether people delete the
session dir, it would be their own fault, so they should have to
manually create it again. I'm sure there are other folders that would be
assumed to be there since install (like the actual dataroot itself)

If no-one complains, will merge.

Cheers,

Hugh

Title:
  Session directories are created on every init

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  htdocs/auth/session.php has a "TEMPORARY: this will be REMOVED..." which has been in there for four years and since 0.7.0
  It's not a major issue, and it serves the job of ensuring that the session directories exist, but this should be done at install time, and should have been part of the upgrade really.

  I think that we should either remove the comment, or remove the code
  depending on what is required.
