Ok, I stand corrected. After looking at the code for PolicyParser it seems
the 0, 1, 2 rule is indeed the case.

Other documentation seems to have implied that an arbitrary number of
constructor arguments were acceptable:

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/security/crypto/CryptoSpec.html#AppA

However, I guess each of these different policy files must have it's own
parser.

Sorry about my confusion.

Thx
