Algorithm names should be considered to be case insensitive, yet gnu-crypto is
treating them as being case sensitive.
This causes a "NoSuchAlgorithmException" if the algorithm string passed does
not match the exact case as the algorithm listed in gnu-crypto.
I have traced the issue to gnu.java.security.Engine and its getInstance
methods. These methods take the algorithm string passed to them as a key to
find the algorithm class in a hashtable.
Instead of using the algorithm name as a key, they hashtable needs to be
iterated through each algorithm and doing a compare ignoring the case.
