Thanks DD K - redoing my start up code per you suggestion solved this in 
a better way, and also my marshal problem from the other thread. 
Curiously I think it was changing the Thread's loader, which is 
something I've not had to do when integrating other projects before.

Or it might have been because as Scott suggested, it forced me to bring 
in a whole bunch more .jar's that didn't seem directly required by the code.

I'd love to use v4, but the project's own docs on v4 say "We do *not* 
have significant documentation"[1]. There's much more in the way of 
examples and help out there for v3, and the main Shibboleth application 
which would be the other source of "how to do v4" is too big to easily 
follow.

As far as I know, SAML itself hasn't changed, so I shouldn't be setting 
myself up for anything too nasty :)
