Thanks for the comments, Brad. I have addressed those here -

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rhalade/8048356/webrev.01/

I plan to have this test to check for default provider only so 
SecureRandom.getInstance(algorithm, provider) API is not good fit here. 
I think there are other tests which use this API and provide sufficient 
coverage.

Thanks,
Rajan
