PDP-D: usecases controller fails to come up

At first, it seems that there is a bad interaction or race condition when AAF is enabled (the AAF cadi filter is loaded) causing the usecases controller to fail initialization, the underlying aether libraries fail with SSL certificate errors.    This has been seen in 2 labs and in both disabling AAF (and therefore the Cadi Filter) has solved the problem.
