There can be messages with empty bodies. For example WS-Reliable
messaging sends such messages. I think this is a bug in Rampart/C.
Because what following assertion says is encrypt the first child of body
if it is there.
<sp:EncryptedParts>
<sp:Body/>
</sp:EncryptedParts>
So if the body is not there it should not return an error.
