Description of problem:

I wanted to use the function CERT_FindBasicConstraintExten() declared as part
of the public API in /usr/include/nss3.h
But when I link my app, the linker says this function is not found.

readelf -s /usr/lib64/libnss3.so | grep FindBasic

nothing - but many of the other similar functions are:

readelf -s /usr/lib64/libnss3.so | grep Extension
   276: 0000003e3aa1b5f0    15 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT   12
CERT_StartCRLExtensions@@NSS_3.10
   290: 0000003e3aa5db80   253 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT   12
CERT_MergeExtensions@@NSS_3.10
   485: 0000003e3aa5dc80   126 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT   12
CERT_AddExtension@@NSS_3.5

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nss-3.12.8-2.fc14

I think CERT_FindBasicConstraintExten() was intended to be exported for the
public API.  If so, please add the symbol - if not, please remove it from
cert.h
