This seems to be complaint about NSS, yet it is filed in the NSPR newsgroup not the NSS newsgroup. So, I'm cross posting this reply to m.d.t.crypto which is effectively the NSS newsgroup.
OTOH, I wonder if this is really a manifestation of bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=319658 which IS an NSPR bug. Jason K.
