Applying this patch to the current CVS eliminates my problems.

Incidentally, I did some more investigation and determined the cause of
the exception I was getting: the wrong method was being called.

In the BaseCipher class, when the method `makeKey' of TripleDES should
have been called, `decrypt' was called instead. Since these methods take
different arguments and a different number of arguments, this explains
the ClassCastExceptions/NullPointerExceptions.
