I've had a look at the spec again and it's not particularly clear. I've 
changed the code to accept either possibility.

I can confirm that it doesn't work for me either now, and wouldn't have 
worked with other JCA providers in any case. I'm still trying to find

it fails during the TLS handshake with a "Connection reset" exception 
using Sun's and IBM's providers.
