Summary:  ClassCastException thrown for MessageDigestSpi subclasses

Original Submission:  the JDK documentation states that Security Providers 
wishing to implement concrete MessageDigest algorithms SHOULD extend 
MessageDigestSpi.

message digest implementations in the gnu.crypto package follow that rule, yet 
when the MessageDigest.getInstance() -with 2 arguments- is invoked a 
ClassCastException is thrown; e.g.:

java.lang.ClassCastException: gnu.crypto.jce.Sha160Spi cannot be cast to 
java.security.MessageDigest
