This is fascinating (to a non-crypto nerd such as myself). It would be nice to collect some code that will fail all the unit tests to study why I think as well as reading the commentary. Also if theres a way to use this to audit legacy Java apps that would be fun as well.

Some of these are in the cryptopals challenges, at http://cryptopals.com/.

I agree, the negative test cases would be good to see.
