When I was debugging a similar problem the most helpful test I ran was to isolate the problem to either the client or the browser by configuring the server logs to show if the cookies we actually sent. I did this by reconfiguring my Apache logs (I think), but I'm not sure how to do that with the runserver. Maybe try testing on a more full- featured server.

And, an untested guess... perhaps Firefox does not consider 127.0.0.1 and localhost to be the same for the permission you set.
