hey, i think i can share some points here. IMO, its the hashed value of user
supplied passpharse. If i remember it correctly, it's get hashed in 
"basic_csr" cmds. So if you want to make backup for private key, you have to 
do some dirty hack their. As pierre pointed out it will be possible only with
basic requests. 

HTH,
