gnu security

The GNU security provider (from gnu classpath gnu.java.security package)
presents itself with the following when calling getInfo() :

"GNU provider v1.0 implementing SHA-1, MD5, DSA"

The MD5 MessageDigest looks to be working, as far as I can gather,
but 

MessageDigest.getInstance("SHA-1","GNU");

generates an NoSuchAlgorithmException.

Clearly this package is in the process of being put in.

Is this work on the way to completion?

If not, is this a good place to help? (It doesn't seem too complicated)
