P.S. BTW why using bcprov when today built-in into JDK javax.crypto package gives everything (in imho better shape and performance) out-of-the-box including AES256?

the compile-lib is for additional libraries which are used for features like xml signatures or additional encryption settings, just have a look CipherAlgorithm or HashAlgorithm to see which algorithm are not supported ... and of course we are based on JDK 6, so newer implementations can't be taken into account

At some point (though not yet!), we'll find some reason why we need to bump the minimum JDK version up to 7. While the signature stuff is fresh in mind, is it worth raising a bug in bugzilla and noting down what'd be involved in swapping from bouncy castle to javax.crypto when we do? That way, as and when we have the need to move to a newer JDK/JVM, we've notes on how to reduce dependencies when we do!

Thanks
