current status:

wss4j                     OK, use BC with reflection


Most packages have been fixed and/or uploaded after bouncycastle 1.46
reached unstable. jenkins-instance-identity has been fixed on Alioth but
can't be uploaded until the new version of jenkins is in unstable.
voms-api-java is the last package that has to be updated.
