Great, thanks!  It occured to me that we may also take to opportunity
to remove the reference to WS-Trust.xsd from the SP catalog.  Sporadic
warnings appear about this in the 2.0 logs:

WARN XMLTooling.ParserPool [13]: warning on line 0, column 0, message: An exception occurred! Type:RuntimeException, Message:Warning: The primary document entity could not be opened. Id=/usr/share/xml/shibboleth/WS-Trust.xsd

I'm not sure about the best way to do this.  The following commits
could be cherry-picked or merged into the Lenny branch:

533b5d91a3b26ee2b9f7883165ad3df563401312
43c6606f63b0986c1102d7018d3594a11f3f8236
a2d1d8e217965f237da6859d407c2a064e188e44

However, this would be dangerous in itself, as the version check in
the postinst compares to 2.0.dfsg1-4 for handling the
/etc/apache2/mods-enabled/shib.load -> shib2.load rename.  If
including that isn't possible (being a quite important change), then
the check version should be corrected as well.

And maybe there are some other little changes worth including.
