Summary:  Null pointer dereference in 
gnu/java/security/x509/X509Certificate.java

Original Submission:  Lines 550-554 of X509Certificate.java:

        if (val == null)
          algVal = null;
        else
          algVal = val.getEncoded();
        if (val.isConstructed()) 
          ...

If val is null, as checked by the test at line 550, a null pointer exception
will occur at line 554.
