I am not an expert on the different implementations of this algorithm.
But if you and Casey agree on this and there are some test results that
show no regressions then I would say go for it.


One thing we should make sure of is that all keys returned by this generator have `getEncoded' methods that return ASN.1 encoded data. The key implementations already in GNU Classpath should all do this, and IIRC, none of GNU Crypto's do.
