Unfortunately one can't take the cookie specs at face value.
Netscape cookies behaviour (the de-facto standard, ie. IE &
Firefox behaviour -- cookie_spec.html is barely worth the
web page it's written on, being flat-out wrong in several
major ways, and very under-specified) has, I'm told, always
simply been simply "split on semicolons". Certainly that's
what IE and Mozilla do now:
(this is just the text of a CGI for viewing: I didn't make
it executable on reportlab.org)

IIRC RFC 2965 is only implemented by Opera, and is certainly
now quite dead as an internet standard. (though I think it
is useful as a guide for writing cookie-handling code, you
can't follow blindly - not even close :-( )
