This is due to the way cookies are defined. Quoting from RFC 2965:
"A is a HDN string and has the form NB, where N is a non-empty name
string, B has the form .B', and B' is a HDN string. (So, x.y.com
domain-matches .Y.com but not Y.com.)"
Does this mean that David Reitter is trying to use the function
incorrectly?
This seems to be because the function url-cookie-host-can-set-p does
not allow for the possibility that a fully-qualified hostname may
only have one dot in it. Indeed, if I evaluate
(url-cookie-host-can-set-p "arxiv.org" ".arxiv.org")
