Zend_Session doesn't allow you to destory and recreate a session

Question

My requirement is, When user agent change session should destroy, and it should start new session. But Zend_Session::start() is throwing an exception if destroy was called before start().

try { 
    Zend_Session::start();   
} catch (Zend_Session_Exception $e) {   
    Zend_Session::destroy(true);
    Zend_Session::start(); // breaking here   
    Zend_Session::regenerateId();   
}  

Zend_Session::registerValidator(new Zend_Session_Validator_HttpUserAgent());

Exception:

Uncaught exception 'Zend_Session_Exception' with message 'The session was explicitly destroyed during this request, attempting to re-start is not allowed.' in library\Zend\Session.php:431

EDIT:
The reason is the second start() command is silently ignored if it was already called in that request. I have posted an issue, Hope they accept it..

if (self::$_sessionStarted) {
    return; // already started
}

Guys I have solved it my self

try {
        Zend_Session::start();
    } catch (Zend_Session_Exception $e) {
        Zend_Session::destroy(true);

        $this->bootstrap('frontController');
        $front = $this->getResource('frontController');
        $front->setRequest(new Zend_Controller_Request_Http()); 
        $front->setResponse(new Zend_Controller_Response_Http());

        $redirector = Zend_Controller_Action_HelperBroker::getStaticHelper('redirector');
        $redirector->gotoUrl($front->getRequest()->getRequestUri(),array('prependBase' => false));

    }
