This is Uri's patch from Pull Request 216. The patch was getting stale. It sat idle because of concerns over Crypto++ 5.6.2 compatibility.
In the bigger picture, "Perfection became the enemy of the good". More folks will benefit in the long term with BouncyCastle and Botan compatibility out of the box. We document the steps necessary for 5.6.2 compatibility for those who need it.
Also see Issue 21 and Issue 307.
