ntoskrnl <http://stackoverflow.com/users/2424896/ntoskrnl> provides a
reflection based workaround for Java 7 and 8.  It won't be maintainable
because it fiddles internal APIs using reflection, but it may be better
than some other alternatives such as using Bouncy Castle or using OpenJDK.

Note this is code I just found on the internet.  I havn't tested it or read
it too closely.
