Haste and multiple 5' steps?

First Post
Is the following situation legal by the Rules as Written?

Hasted fighter takes 5' step forward, full-attacks, then with his partial action takes a second 5' step and performs a single attack.

I know that a 5' step can be taken as part of just about any partial action, but do hasted individuals gain that second 5' step?

No.

No. You are allowed only one 5-foot step per round.
 

For further clarification, from the FAQ...

Is there any limit to how many 5-foot steps a master samurai can make when using the supreme cleave ability? The Cleave feat says you can attack another creature in the immediate vicinity when you drop a foe with a melee attack. What is the definition of "immediate vicinity?" How does that change when using supreme cleave?
A character can take only one 5-foot step each round, and then only if the character has not otherwise moved during the round. Supreme cleave lets you step between cleave attacks, but you still can step only once.
