Debina GNU/Linux Woody, Mozilla 1.2.1

I have build the above version using the following options:

export CONFIG_ARGS="--disable-tests --disable-debug 
--enable-optimize=-O2 --enable-extensions --enable-ldap-experimental 
--with-pthreads --enable-crypto --enable-modules=dbm 
--disable-elf-dynstr-gc"

Then I call "make -f client.mk build" and as root "make install".

Everything appear to work well, and https also works correctly, but 
S/MIME messages display the following message in a box:

This is an ENCRYPTED or SIGNED message.
This Mail application does not support encrypted or signed mail.
What am I doing wrong here, how do I get S/MIME to work.

When I use the standard distro mozilla package, everything works.

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

my usual answer is mozilla support for "make install" is minimal at best

since mozilla is for developers teh usual practice is to run directly
from mozilla/dist/bin
my guess is make install mishandles NSS and PSM
