Did you consider changing `EncryptedPrivateKeyInfo(...,AlgorithmParameters)` to 
throw `IllegalStateException` if the parameters were not initialized? I know 
you said you were worried about changing the API, but it would be a cleaner 
option. I wonder if there is really any code that is initializing the 
parameters after creating the EPKI.

add "or cannot be decoded"

Add "or cannot be decoded"

It would be useful to add a comment here that you are testing that an EPKI can 
be created with an uninitialized AP.

test/jdk/sun/security/x509/AlgorithmId/Uninitialized.java line 35:

Is this test necessary? It seems to be duplicating the additional test you 
added to GetAlgName.java
