Its not a bug with Firefox, but a problem in the way firefox is bundled
in Ubuntu. This didnt happen a few releases ago.
HINT: A library shouldnt have broken dependencies/references, no matter
if it is private or not.
Apart from that, as discussed in mozilla-dev-tech-crypto mailist, Java access to NSS IS a valid way of working, and theres a mozilla project called JSS to do so.
Until a better system is designed for crypto operations, this should work.

As the library has broken dependencies it fails to load, and that causes an undesired behaviour.
The only required step is to PROPERLY reference the library or link it.
Do you REALLY think having a "broken" dependency is OK?
It's common sense!
Of course i can set LD_LIBRARY_PATH or do a symlink, but thats a
workaround, not a solution.
