Re: Current BC master (Java) fails tests

This appears to be saying that a setSeed call on the native PRNG has
failed. It's not actually managing to call any Bouncy Castle provider code.

The "Caused by: java.io.IOException: Operation not permitted" is the
give away.

Is there anything unusual about the way the JVM is configured?
