This is a patch that should be applied once the following two issues are resolved:
#1306074: WSOD when unable to connect to mongodb
#1007974: Backport sessions module to D6

Once these two issues are resolved, this patch will update the sessions module so that it errors cleanly when unable to connect to a MongDB server. This means that instead of totally WSOD breaking your site, it simply becomes "anonymous only".

For those who are interested, I've put all these patches together here: https://github.com/phayes/mongodb

Three years later and no committed version, can we agree to close this and say there will never be a stable 6.x version for sessions, hence close this issue too ?

Or does it apply to 7.x too ?

Agreed. If there is still anyone out there that needs this feel free to reopen and bring patch to RTBC state. Maintainers will be happy to commit it in that case.

Did a quick search in D7 code and it seems that we don't have watchdog() calls where they shouldn't be.
