At this moment only mozilla-nss, firefox-nss or xulrunner-nss.

I have to check whether HAVE_OPENSSL works and is correctly done.

At this moment, I'm only certain that tinymail's Camel supports using
the Mozilla's NSS library. This is something that I have checked and
tested.

Tinymail's Camel can probably be adapted (and should) so that both would
be for sure supported. But it's in any case something that I haven't
checked myself yet.
