Hi all,

As of DEV300m57 there will be a module named 'nss', which builds, as the 
name suggests, the mozilla nss libraries. These libraries are more 
recent (v 3.12.3) then those which are built in the moz module. nss will 
be build by default and the libraries and headers replace those from moz.

nss was tested with the major platforms:

Windows, Windows MinGW, Solaris x86, Solaris Sparc, Linux, Linux x86_64, 
Mac (x86).

Developers are welcome to make nss work on other platforms too. As long 
as nss does not work on those platforms one can disable it by the 
configure switch --disable-nss-module.

Best Regards
