This Tomcat instance has cookies="false" in the <Context> for
the IdP. The JSESSIONID cookie is not used by the vanilla IdP.

The MCB does not set its "own" cookie but uses the JSESSIONID
cookie and so the default or an explicit cookies="true" is
necessary.

Changing cookies="true" resolves the issue.

I'll make a note of that requirement on the wiki. I'll also look and see if I can change it to tie into the Shib session instead of the Tomcat session. I'm not sure that the Shib session is considered a public interface or not though, will have to look.
