David, for about 10 years now, the NSS team's answer to inquiries about
PKCS#8 have been that:
- NSS doesn't support bare PKCS#8 for key import or key export.
- PKCS#12 is the protocol/format which all major PKI/SSL implementations
  agree to support, and for which they test interoperability.
- NSS team recommends that you use PKCS#12.
