Details

This bug was reported to me on 5/12/2000 by relyea.
This bug is derived from bugsplat bug 395308.

In nss 2.8 and later, in ssl3con.c in ssl3_GenerateSessionKeys()
if the first two attempts to derive the master secret (the 
second of which is a faux attempt) both fail, the params SECItem
used in the third attempt points to a structure that is no longer
in scope.  This is incorrect, although it seems to work OK (has
passed the QA tests).

Fix is known.
