Well, it's not a private API but it's part of freebl and packaged in FC 
or RHEL as nss-softokn-freebl(-devel). It still requires 'pkg-config 
nss-softokn' to provide the path to includes etc.. I could not find this 
package in Ubuntu, either. So that may also be a problem then for 
libtpms, which depends on freebl.

I'll use this API. This will make the patch a lot simpler since it will 
only require 'nss' to be available.

Will do.
Thanks for reviewing / testing.
