Either clearing the sessions table or deleting cookies will usually cure it and effectively do the same thing. The user or session table can also be corrupted.
You can also use ini_set to turn on display_errors. the WSOD is from having a suppressed php error that can't be displayed. If you have direct database access it will be in syslog or the watchdog table in your db, depending on how you're set up.

Seems to me that I ran into this before and it was a cookie issue

I have a Drupal 6.26 site on a VPS. At random, pages return WSOD and no log in Apache. Whenever this happens I see an access denied error in the log from user Anonymous and the URL I just tried and the time etc.
The hostname there is the IP of the server itself. That's what's bizarre. Also that it's anonymous. I am logged in as user #1.
I can't find any report of this issue. Anyone ever see such a thing?
