java.math.BigInteger(int bitLength, int certainty, Random rnd) hangs after several
calls to it. See test example.

Here is the example demonstrating the bug:
------------- test321.java -------------------------
public class test321 {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        java.util.Random rnd=new java.util.Random(1);
        BigInteger n;

        n = new BigInteger(2,0,rnd);
        n = new BigInteger(2,1,rnd);
        n = new BigInteger(2,2,rnd);
        n = new BigInteger(2,2,rnd);
        n = new BigInteger(2,2,rnd);
        n = new BigInteger(2,2,rnd);

        System.out.println("test complete");
        return;
    }

}
