== system NSS on Linux ==
Note that different Linux distributions use different SONAMEs for the
NSS libraries, so it is not possible to use --with-system-nss and build
a portable generic LO installation set, despite NSS upstream apparently
maintaining ABI compatibility.
Debian Squeeze:
0x000000000000000e (SONAME) Library soname: [libnss3.so.1d]
Fedora 20:
0x000000000000000e (SONAME) Library soname: [libnss3.so]
For the record, the LSB specified SONAME is libnss3.so
