<stateURI> Problem with No Session on WPS 4.2

I am running WPS 4.2. I have a portlet built using the state pattern
that is deployed on an anonymous page. A JSP in the portlet contains
the tag <stateURI:createURI state="my.package.MyAction"/>. The first
time the page is rendered the URI generated is invalid. It takes me to
the wrong location. If I try again, the correct URI is generated.
Weird. I discovered that if anonymous sessions are turned on by
setting public.session=true in the NavigatorService.properties file,
the correct URI is generated the first time. I can't figure out what
session has to do with creating the URI. I don't want to leave
public.session=true because of the performance hit. Can anyone shed
any light and perhaps offer a solution?
