Change looks fine.
Minor issue:

Extra parenthesis in
src/share/classes/sun/security/rsa/RSAPublicKeyImpl.java:

+            byte[] keyArray =
+                (new DerValue(DerValue.tag_Sequence,
+                              out.toByteArray())).toByteArray();

Thanks, I've removed the extra parentheses.

One question:

In src/share/classes/sun/security/x509/X509Key.java, two fields are now
not recommended:

     @Deprecated
     protected byte[] key = null;

     /*
      * The number of bits unused in the last byte of the key.
      * Added to keep the byte[] key form consistent with the BitArray
      * form. Can de deleted when byte[] key is deleted.
      */
     private int unusedBits = 0;

I understand that key should be marked @Deprecated because it's
protected and therefore part of (although private) API, but what about
unusedBits? Is it better to also mark it @Deprecated?

I see what you mean. But is it OK to mark private members @Deprecated? I 
don't know if that violates convention or not. Let me know if you'd like 
me to add that, and I'll include it in this change.

Thanks,
Jason

Hi Jason,

Looks fine to me, but a security reviewer should approve as well.

Joe, Sean,

Could I please get a review of this changeset? This change fixes
deprecation warnings in:
 sun.security.provider
 sun.security.rsa
 sun.security.x509

In sun.security.provider and sun.security.rsa, I change the use of
sun.security.x509.X509Key's key bytes to the BitArray form of the key.
