Please review the following change: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~vinnie/7142888/webrev.00/

for http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/viewbug.do?bugid=7142888 Some implementations of the SHA512withECDSA signing algorithm require that the signing/validation key is at least 512 bits. If I am correct, RSA algorithms have such limitation, but for EC algorithms, there is no such require. Is it a intend design, or a bug of the implementation?

It's not a bug. I believe it is a FIPS recommendation.

Thanks.
