      MessageDigest toString() and digest() methods do not return message digests like they did in JDK 1.1 -- the documentation still states that they return these, but the toString() method returns "initialized" where the digest used to be returned, and the update method returns a vaguely random value.
       Please update either the documentation or the return value for these. The DigestOutputStream methods have the same problems.
