User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.5; Linux) KHTML/3.5.7 (like Gecko) SUSE
Build Identifier: Gecko 1.9
The nsPK11Token::ChangePassword does not allow to pass NULL values to PK11_ChangePW since when oldPassword and newPassword are converted they are transformed as an empty string which may have a different meaning once C_SetPIN is called: if a protected authentication path want to be used, the arguments must be NULL (different from an empty string).
See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=446592 for the NSS part.

I agree that "password not set" is different
"password set with zero length"
so your explanation sounds reasonable to me.
