First make sure the SP properly maps it by visiting (after session
creation, with the NameID sent) /Shibboleth.sso/Session
To also see the value set showAttributeValues="true" for that handler
in shibboleth2.xml

When your "nameid" envvar is present the problem is with Tomcat
and/or mod_jk, not Shibboleth.
