I don't know anything about that library.

But JCE providers and Java Web Start are a well-known issue.

http://lopica.sourceforge.net/faq.html#jce has the basic information.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4275005/jnlp-applet-bouncy-castle has 
some suggestions.

http://wiki.nikhef.nl/grid/JGridstart/Bouncycastle_and_Java_Web_start 
has another suggestion.

It seems like it do work, but that it requires some effort.
