The issue is: a symmetric key is encrypted with public key from key pair A. If it is attempted to be decrypted with private key from key pair B, BC sometimes intermittenly throws a runtime exception, as opposed to the correct checked exception, merely indicating decryption failure. 

And FYI, we already have a KeyPair "verification" method in OpenSAML that does pretty much the same thing as the vt-crypt isKeyPair method.
