/**
 * Implements the normal java.security.MessageDigest stream cipers. Base64
 * strings returned by this provider are correctly padded to multiples of four
 * bytes. If you run into interoperability problems with other languages,
 * especially perl and the Digest::MD5 module, note that the md5_base64 function
 * from this package incorrectly drops the pad bytes. Use the MIME::Base64
 * package instead.
 *
 * If you upgrade from Turbine 2.1 and suddently your old stored passwords no
 * longer work, please take a look at the OldJavaCrypt provider for bug-to-bug
 * compatibility.
 *
 * This provider can be used as the default crypto algorithm provider.
