Give a look at:
http://hg.mperillo.ath.cx/nginx/mod_parsed_vars

and
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.nginx.english/3001

The current version requires a small patch to nginx.



P.S.:
unlike the Evan's patch, I have written a custom parser for the cookies.

I was not aware of the ngx_http_parse_multi_header_lines function, but 
cookies format is a mess so a custom parser may be a better solution.
