[JRE] RFC 4497, which on this subject is not far away from RFC 3398, was
somewhat later.

In addition, my company's experience with basing implementations on RFC
4497 has been good - I am not aware of any field issues with this.

[JRE] But they seem to be saying different things, so we can't be in
line with all of them anyway.
