Hmm. Can you maybe start by opening a bug on what's failing under what 
conditions? I don't know of any issues like this.

There's an init at the libshibsp level that initializes opensaml and 
xmltooling directly, and those handle everything else.

There's no call to anything in the system until that completes.
