Hi
I thought I'd share this info, taken from the curl users list, archived at
http://curl.haxx.se/mail/archive-2010-07/0024.html
Perhaps someone more involved with NSS feels like taking this issue onwards,
as it feels like either a limitation/bug in NSS, or a limitation/bug in how
libcurl is using NSS...

Subject: Re: Problem with curl + nss
It looks like a bug. The question now is of course if the
problem is within NSS or curl. Can you browse to this page
with Firefox?
The failure was due to my PKCS#8 private key format :
- With a PKCS#8 private key
-----BEGIN ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY----- header
or
-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY----- header
curl+openssl works, but not curl+nss+libnsspem.so
- With a RSA private key
-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY----- header
both curl+openssl and curl+nss+libnsspem.so work
