Here is a backport of this fix to 1.3.1 (the version that released with
lenny).  Does this look correct?  If so, I'll contact the security team
and get the security update process started.

The one item of note on the backport is that 1.3.1 had version 1.3.1 of
the shibboleth-targetconfig-1.0.xsd and I updated to 1.3.5 instead of just
patching, which includes the change from 1.3.1 to 1.3.2, since the patch
wouldn't otherwise apply cleanly.  However, the other code changes for
1.3.2 are not in the package.  I'm not sure if this might cause a problem
and haven't done further investigation on exactly what additional change
that represents.

Thank you very much for the pointers to the patches!
