Well, one *could* argue to put all of the above into individual packages, but 
since
they are all critical packages (well, at least pkcs11_softtoken and 
pkcs11_kernal are, tpm
maybe not) they probably belong in /system/library where they are now.

pkcs11_tpm *could* be split out but should probably still be installed by 
default.
However, that is beyond the scope of my project at this point.

pkcs11_kms is not something we want to have installed by default since it is 
only
really useful in an environment where there is a KMS available, so I think it's
best left isolated in it's own package that can be installed as necessary 
without 
bringing in lots of other stuff.
