I had to make a small update to the webrev to PKCS11Test.java because 
the TestEC test failed on Windows. Some deployment-specific security 
providers will throw a ServiceConfigurationError if not granted the 
right permissions. These permissions may not be configured correctly and 
are outside the scope of the jdk.crypto.ec module, so the exception is 
ignored. (This is the same way we load providers in 
sun.security.jca.ProviderConfig)

new webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mullan/webrevs/8168078/webrev.01/

Thanks,
Sean
