Sending multiple HTTP cookies under JDK1.3

Question

Can anyone tell mw how to send at HTTP request (java.net.HttpURLConnection) with 2 cookies for (!!!) JDK1.3.1
Here, for 1.4.x you can do
URL conn = new URL("http://localhost/test.php");
URLConnection uconn = conn.openConnection();
uconn.addRequestProperty("Cookie", "ima=cookie");
uconn.addRequestProperty("Cookie", "its=cookietoo");
but in 1.3 you've no addRequestProperty(), just setRequestProperty() that overwrites old headers. There's an explanation in APIdoc, but I can nor understand it, neither make it work. As they write, I should do
URL conn = new URL("http://localhost/test.php");
URLConnection uconn = conn.openConnection();
uconn.setRequestProperty("Cookie", "ima=cookie,its=cookietoo");
but that gives a cookie with data "ima=cookie,its=cookietoo", not the one I want.

Former PERL programmer? That's not.
Looking at jcookie.sourceforge.net I decided that was really Sun's bug, I found some HttpURLConnection methods don't work as they should. For ex.,
HttpURLConnection.set[Instance]FollowRedirects(boolean)
makes it use "Location:" headers, but not collect "Set-Cookie:" ones, what's often implemented in login systems (e.g. login CGI script sets login cookie & redirects to another page, while this class loses that cookie).
