I think iText explicitly uses BC classes directly in a number of places.
Most likely, therefore, use of BC is mandatory if you use the iText
cryptographic functions extensively. (Once someone proposed adding wrappers
for different cryptographic libraries but I don't think that is high on the
priority list if at all --- even though it would have made life easier for
integrators when the BC 1.47 trouble started).

You may not have to add a new BC instance to the providers each time your
application verifies, though. if you use the method overloads with explicit
provider argument instead of resorting to the default one, registering it
once should suffice.

You may probably even get away without BC for many iText functions if you
explictly select the IAIK provider in those method overloads...
