Android KeyFactory RSA Deployment Not Found

I have a class that extends Application. In the onCreate () method, I start some kind of thread that calls:

KeyFactory.getInstance("RSA")

It usually works fine, but from time to time (very rarely) I get this exception:

W/System.err(24537): java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException: KeyFactory RSA implementation not found
W/System.err(24537):    at org.apache.harmony.security.fortress.Engine.notFound(Engine.java:177)
W/System.err(24537):    at org.apache.harmony.security.fortress.Engine.getInstance(Engine.java:151)
W/System.err(24537):    at java.security.KeyFactory.getInstance(KeyFactory.java:81)

It looks like a race ... I think that the security system is not initialized at the moment when my thread calls "RSA".

Is this a known issue? Can someone give me some advice?

I get this problem on device 4.0.3 (don't know about other versions).

More details:

I tried a code like this:

Provider providers[] = Security.getProviders();

try {
    k1 = KeyFactory.getInstance("RSA");
}
catch(Exception e) {
    e1 = e;
}

try {
    k2 = KeyFactory.getInstance("RSA", "BC");
}
catch(Exception e) {
    e2 = e;
}

try {
    k3 = KeyFactory.getInstance("RSA");
}
catch(Exception e) {
    e3 = e;
}

if(k1 == null || k2 == null || k3 == null) {
    if(e1 != null)
        e1.printStackTrace();

    if(e2 != null)
        e2.printStackTrace();

    if(e3 != null)
        e3.printStackTrace();
}

for(Provider provider : providers) {
    System.out.println(provider.getName());
}

And this is what I get from time to time:

k1 is null
k2 is <key>
k3 is null


e1.printStackTrace();

While most of the time I get all initialized k1, k2, k3 ...
