Sorry for the delay.  If I understand you correctly, in my idp.xml file 
where I find my existing:

<MetadataProvider 
type="edu.internet2.middleware.shibboleth.metadata.provider.XMLMetadata"
 
uri="file:/usr/local/shibboleth-idp/etc/InCommon-metadata.xml"/>

...I'd add an additional provider for the non-InCommon SP that I want to 
incorporate into my Shibboleth v1.3 service, correct?

<MetadataProvider 
type="edu.internet2.middleware.shibboleth.metadata.provider.XMLMetadata"
 
uri="file:/usr/local/shibboleth-idp/etc/InCommon-metadata.xml"/>

<MetadataProvider 
type="edu.internet2.middleware.shibboleth.metadata.provider.XMLMetadata"
 
uri="file:/usr/local/shibboleth-idp/etc/Acme-metadata.xml"/>
