X509Certificate.getExtendedKeyUsage() called directly in CertUtil !

in com.sun.deploy.security.X509Util.java, the method getExtendedKeyUsage exists to warp the function 509Certificate.getExtendedKeyUsage() so that if called from jre previous to 1.4, the NoSuchMethodError can be caught, and the older method of getting the extended ley usage can be used.
However, in com.sun.deploy.security.CertUtil, X509Certificate.getExtendedKeyUsage() is called directly, causing a NoSuchMethodError to be thrown when running under jre 1.3.0 or 1.3.1.

As a result no signed applications are working when running j2se 1.3.

The javaw.exe process is running continuously as a result of this problem.
