Hello,

we need support of X.509 certificates using elliptic curves for client-auth 
within an servlet-application.
The certificates we use are coded using DomainParameters within the PublicKey 
object. When using the sun-jdk this will
lead to an error because the sun-jce implementation only supports elliptic 
curves as NamedCurves.

The best way to fix this is to use another security-provider e.g. bouncycastle.
For that we need a way to configure it within tomcat.

I have attached three patch-files as a proposal for this new configuration 
parameter.

Please let me know if this changes can be added in a future release of tomcat.


Yours sincerely
