To be frank, "RSA is so impossibly complicated that nobody ever could implement it" is just spreading FUD. It's not so complicated an expert* couldn't do it, the code is small to review, it's been done, and safe implementations are well-known. If you decide to use a new up and coming library the risk is on you whatever algorithm you choose. Sure, go to ECC if you want, but there's no good reason to especially doubt the security of existing RSA implementation.
