I'm using nss-3.12.4, the newest NSS release, and the system I'm using is not a standard distribution. This problem really disturb me.

why it's so difficult? :-(

Because NSS has a different approach to certificates and files than what libcurl was made for.

Because NSS upstream hasn't accepted the PEM reading patch.

Because not enough people in our project have streamlined the documentation and polished everything.

Because NSS also lacks documentation for people that comes to this problem from our angle.

Because software engineering is still engineering.

Because we are always undermanned and libcurl is to a large extent voluntary driven and developed by people using up their spare time.

... I believe you get it now ;-)
